Un-Covered III

This week, we will go through a third set of songs that share a title, but nothing else: they are not cover versions of one another, i.e., un-covered. As we found in the preceding two sets of the same concept, this makes for a very varied set of styles, so we’ll have a little bit of a roller-coaster ride.

079R Turn it Up!

One of our best shows, well deserving of a rebroadcast, but we were snookered by technical issues on the voice side – the music came through fine, so we carried on.  I’m happy to do a repeat on an off day, do suggest a good one…  Despite all that, 26 listeners at one point, which is very good by any standards for a niche Internet radio.

Turn It Up! Remastered

This week’s show features songs with hooks (those are the opening notes establishing the theme of the song) that make the listener sit up and turn it up to eleven.

Larry Coryell and The Eleventh House

This week’s show will concern itself with Jazz guitarist Larry Coryell and his 1970s band, The Eleventh House.

Coryell partnered with a who-is-who of modern Jazz throughout his career and is considered one of the pioneers of Fusion, so this would be a good show to get to know the genre, if you’re not familiar with it already. In which case this would be a good show to enjoy it.

078R Lazy Days

A selection of laid-back tracks suitable for a late summer afternoon’s relaxation.  And also an antidote to our often frantic pace.  Well attended and appreciated, and we did not take any advantage of the somnambulent state of some of our audience to relieve them of their valuables.  Honest, guv, it just fell into me hand.

208 Radiohead

A show long anticipated, put together for us by a collaborater from the cavern, and given a final polish with help from the Radio Free D’ni team.  Possibly the most recent band we’ve featured as the subject of a whole show, it was interesting to all of us and may have converted one or two.

Preshow was live/accoustic stuff, postshow was collaborations, live performances and a track from Thom Yorke’s new band Smile.

076R Let’s Eat (Breakfast)

Updated from its first broadcast with some new tracks and better linking.  I liked it, but I’m a bit biased.  A very wide selection of genres and styles, yes, a smörgåsbord for breakfast.  I got Alan’s Psychedelic Breakfast out of the way in the preshow, which was padded out with stuff from the H section of the stash, Hayseed Dixie and Huey Lewis and the News.

The breakfast theme included Cyril Tawney’s Chicken on a Raft, a made-up sea shanty – Cyril served on diesel submarines – and includes some Royal Navy slang : a short glossary is included below Continue reading

Let’s Eat: Breakfast (remastered)

While we’re not sure whether remastering a breakfast is a good idea, we will still have a remaster of our first meal-related shows this week, the theme being breakfast. And no, we’re not out to lunch on that one—Lunch will be covered in a later show.
