219 Ten Years After

Some early Blues-rock for a change, and a band that got a big lift from their appearance at Woodstock, Ten Years After.  Guitar speed merchant Alvin Lee was their frontman, and a reputation for really entertaining live shows got them noticed.  We looked at their years on the Deram label, covering their biggest successes.

Ten Years After

This week’s offering is an overview of British Bluesrock band Ten Years After—one of those bands that keep breaking up only to reform a while later. For this show, however, we will concentrate on the line-up from the Deram Records years, i.e., the early days that brought the band to international acclaim.

046R Pink Floyd part II

The second part of our four-part History of Pink Floyd, curated by Malaclypse and newly-polished for the occasion.  Covering Atom Heart Mother to Wish You Were Here, lots of longish tracks, but plenty to keep the audience interested.  20 connections/listeners for a lot of the show, very encouraging 🙂

218 MOULa Thirteenth Anniversary

Given the laundry list of items associated (by retailers for the most part) with thirteenth anniversaries, it was surprisingly difficult to find enough tracks – so the criteria were widened a bit.  Given a list of lace, furs, textiles. Citrine, Opal, Malachite, Moonstone, chrysanthemums and white rose, I allowed a bit of slack to include fabric, weaving, cloth and clothes, all nondescript roses and yellow, since citrine is yellow quartz.  That let me assemble a nice set of tracks, with assistance from the stashes of Hugh and Malaclypse, who also assisted with notes.

We had up to 34 connections to the stream, a good number for RFD and very good for any niche Internet radio channel.  Our thanks to all our listeners

085R Moula Anniversary

This show is based on our first ever MOULa Anniversary show but with many updates to address the pass of time and the different presenters.  Sadly, Malaclypse’s connection failed for reasons we are not yet sure of, and I had to do the show solo. This is something that has not afflicted us for several years now, and is the reason we give a brief warning about it at the start of the show.   We had a large gap of silence in the first few minutes, which was regrettable.  Good listener numbers despite that, and a good response from the cavern too.

217 Manfred Mann’s Earth Band

A nice set of tracks from a band that, despite it’s several big hits, was never big in the album charts on either side of the Atlantic.  Very prog rock in places, but with a good number of big hit singles, which we covered.

Manfred Mann’s Earth Band

This week we will take a good look at South African keyboardist Manfred Mann’s 1970s success story, the Earth Band–which is still going today.

087R Blokes

Originally entitled ‘Boys’, but on reflection, Blokes was a much more descriptive title.  Dialog was completely rewritten, as the original was just a bit too clunky.

Peak 20 listeners, which was satisfying. I have to mention that the remastered shows are reworked, as the title suggests, and are in no way inferior to our new shows.
