Radio Free D'ni

A show from five years ago, and at a point when we were getting really pretty good at doing this.  Dialog tightened up and the show trimmed for length, cutting two Dave Brubeck tracks.  We had a lot of those already.    Our first broadcast of the show had 20 listeners, and we broke that with…

Seventies prog rockers Curved Air, featuring Sonja Kristina as its only constant member, and still touring today, were the focus of our show.  A sizeable audience, once again, up to 33 at one point.

A show in collaboration with the NULP dance crew in the Cavern, but still good to listen to, I thought.  Nearly fifty listeners at one point agreed with me 🙂 Preshow Title Artists Album Year Kodak Ghosts Michael Chapman Fully Qualified Survivor 1997 Fun In The Dark Larry Carlton and Lee Ritenour Larry & Lee…

A good selection from the broad career of Herbie Hancock as a band leader.  Including a couple of disco tracks in the postshow.

The Covered Up concept (songs and their cover variants with interesting stories connecting them) is one of Malaclypse’s, and this was the first in the series.  An excellent collection of track had the Cavern audience dancing in the aisles – well, on the plaza, which is good enough for us.

We were Finnished.  But we managed to recover, and broadcast this show which concentrates on Finnish Prog Rock Band Wigwam.  An education to several of us in the Radio Free D’ni team, too.

A show from the first time we really got ourselves together, with a great playlist and some excellent dialog.  16 listeners max, but we are in the holiday season for Europe.  Literary references are included as notes, and I have included some links if anyone wants to look further.

A commemoration of the thirtieth anniversary of the death of Miles Davis, a legendary jazz trumpeter, bandleader and arranger.  The show was put together by Hugh and was something of a labour of love.

One of our early shows, with a very good and varied tracklist, remastered for new listeners.  Despite several disruptions in the cavern, our audience reached 20, which is a respectable number, and I know that 20 connections means more than 20 people listening.  Thanks. folks.

An interesting show with a lot of stuff I’d not heard before, having never followed Jackson Browne myself.  Our thanks to Dave Gray and Hugh who prepared the show.
