The briefing for this, our next show, is for the tracks to be live (album, concert DVD or whatever) and better, more impressive than the studio album counterparts.  There are a lot of candidates, and I’ve asked all the team to contribute.  But, I’m the one who’ll do the selection, so it’s got to impress me 🙂

The title of the show should be recognisable to anyone of a certain age who was also into unusual SF TV series.  Let me know if you think you’ve got it, and I’ll tell you if you’re right, or at least on the same wavelength as me.

On the 19th of January, we will air the second part of our overview of the career of bass player Dave Pegg, founding member of Fairport Convention and, for a few years, bassist of Jethro Tull. He has also done some solo work and has played in the studio for many other artists.

On the 8th of December, we will present music written by lyricist Bernie Taupin and composer Reginald Dwight (aka Elton John)—not necessarily performed by the latter (that would be too easy a show to put together), but often performed with a certain degree of success by other artists.

This Sunday, we will present bass player Dave Pegg, famously of Fairport Convention and Jethro Tull, who also got a bundle of session work done in between.

Our next outing will be to Chicago, courtesy of the pioneering band of that name who combined rock and a brass section in a new and enduring, way.  We will be looking at the first eight years of their career, up to their first change in lineup, brought about by the death of guitarist Terry Kath.  Join us on Sunday 13th 🙂

That’s the question we are going to ask on Sunday. And while there are those who would answer, “hopefully never,” we believe there is something to be said in favour of the large, multi-section group…

Sunday, August 18th we were going to present a show of Rock made in Germany, but due to circumstances beyond our control will have to postpone that show. So, instead we chose the cheap option and put together another show featuring songs rarely played on radio, and selections with a bit of a story to them.

Sunday, August 4th we will present Bebop Deluxe, a 1970s Prog Rock band which never actually played Bebop.
