0151R Electric Folk Remastered

A show I remasterd in terms of the script, but the content remained unchanged.  I was tempted, but I’m glad I didn’t succumb.  Very well attended, max 25, 19 for most of the show – more than we had for the first broadcast 🙂  Very gratifying.

Warning.  Do not listen to the lyrics from Hokey Pokey if you are of delicate constitutiuon.

179 The Wood and The Wire: guitar instrumentals

An idea that occurred to me a while ago, and at the time I didn’t think there would be many tracks that qualified.  Then I started to look properly, and my goodness, there are loads.

I did indulge myself a bit in choosing some of my own favourites, but Malaclypse and Hugh contributed too, Hugh helping with the classical/accoustic section in particular.

We had a good audience, especially considering we were still in the holiday period, and the folks in the cavern liked it.  We’ll start work on a follow-up

Louder than laughter, brighter than fire
The promise that lives in the wood and the wire

178 Review of the Year 2021

Our anniversary show is always a Review of the Year, where Ed picks his favourites from the previous year’s shows.  Now we are broadcasting Remastered shows on the alternate weeks, Ed takes his pick from just the new shows, 24 of them in the past year.  We broadcast our first show in August 2014. August 2021 marks the end of our seventh year of shows, and begins our eighth.  We had a good audience for the show too, something that doesn’t always happen in the holiday season.

Our first show specially assembled for the Fourth of July, and it was very successful, despite the celebration drawing away some of our audience.  There were still over 25 listeners, a very good number for a public holiday.

Our show was assembled by Hugh, our most English, nay, Liverpudlian member of the team.   He’ll be back,
