236 Fire!
A show for broadcast on November 5th, which is Bonfire Night in the UK, when bonfires and fireworks are indulged in. Having a theme of fire produced a very large number of candidate tracks, and they were reduced to one two-hour show with enough left over for another, so we’ll do this again.
Complete with exposition and explanation of the whole Gunpowder Plot, Guy Fawkes thing including burning figures in effigy – no longer the Pope, we are relieved to say.
Fire!
On the occasion of this year’s Guy Fawkes/Bonfire night, we will put on a show that’s on fire. Well, featuring songs about fire, fireworks, etc. Bring your safety goggles and dancing shoes!
Also please note that sanity has returned to most of the world in the form of standard time, so the show will be on at the usual 12:30 KI time for everybody again.

105R The Who, part 2
The second and final part of our look at The Who, covering the years after Keith Moon’s death and solo work from the remaining band members.
The Who, pt. 2
This week, we’ll have a look at the other bits The Who did, both as a band after Keith Moon’s death and as individuals.
And a reminder to our non-European listeners, DST is ending for the UK and EU this weekend, so the pre-show will begin around 13:30 this week.

235 Lou Reed: The RCA and Arista years 1971-86
A tribute assembled by Hugh to mark the tenth anniversary of Lou Reed’s passing. I was absent, but by all reports it went well.

104R The Who, part I
Covering the period from their first releases up to the death of Keith Moon, we began with some early-ish single releases including The Ox, an Entwistle showcase using his nickname. A long main show – well, there was a lot to cover – and finishing with some live bonus tracks from The Who By Numbers. A good solid show, though I say it myself.
The Who, pt. 1
Who, you ask? The Who. Not The High Numbers. Though they went by that name for a short while, too. This week’s show will follow The Who from their foundation to the death of Keith Moon.

234 By The Book, Chapter 3
The third in our occasional series of music with literary inspirations, assembled by Hugh with some new performances for our ears. The preshow tracks all had “book” in the title, and the postshow ones “read”.
By the Book, chapter 3
This week, we will delve into the world of literature-inspired music once again. Imagine an audiobook you can sing along to… and you’re probably about 90 ° off the track.
