222 World Music – Roots Music
A nicely varied collection covering East, West, North and South and featuring original artists and music from their localities, some traditional, some incorporating modern updates. Went down well with the cavern audience, and listener numbers were up there with our best, 38 at one point and over 30 the whole way through.
The show gave the presenters many more pronunciation challenges than usual, but the team rose to the task, and I don’t think we called anyone a jam doughnut. As promised, here’s the playlist with all the names spelled as they appeared on the packaging, which has meant some cajoling of WordPress to get the right diacratic symbols.
I did not speak for this show, as I am still recovering from a bad cold, liable to cough or sneeze without warning and generally sound like a badly-maintained door.
World Music
This week, we are going to take a look at what people around the world experience as contemporary music, with examples from all parts of Africa, Asia, the Americas as well as Europe.
And a reminder to our north American listeners, the time shift will have happened in Europe when this show airs, so times are back to normal for you, too!

088R Hook, Line and Sinker
A second selection of tracks with memorable musical hooks, opening phrases that grab your attention and make you want to Turn It Up.
Peaked at 21 listeners, perhaps affected by it being Mother’s Day in the UK – but nowhere else – and the time change for US listeners caused by Europe and the UK having not gone to DST while the US has. One of these days we’ll stop doing this.
Turn It Up 2–Hook, Line and Sinker!
This week we will have a second set of songs with a very strong hook—one that leads the listener to turn it up to 11.

221 Ladies of Jazz
A very nice and laid-back collection of players and singers from the last fifty years, all ladies performing in the jazz genre. Assembled by Hugh, who reckons it’s one of his best, and the team agreed.
Ladies of Jazz
This week’s show continues the theme of International Women’s Day by looking at the great Ladies of Jazz. Also, because of the recurring insanity of Daylight Saving Time, the show will be an hour later than usual for our North American listeners, who will already have switched to DST. So, the pre-show starts 13:30 KI time.

220 IWD 2023
Our contribution to International Women’s Day, and fortunately this time we were able to have Root Beer host it, as we do whenever possible.
Some old favourites, and some new tracks too, all performed by women, in most cases written by women and about women.
077R Pink Floyd 3
The third out of four parts for our History, covering Animals and The Wall. Well attended and an enthusiasic crowd on the Plaza discussed ailments, beer, cooking and also the music
The History of Pink Floyd, pt. 3
