143R Georgie Fame
The British R&B and jazz musician gets the Radio Free D’ni treatment, with two hours of tracks from his fifty-year career. The big hits from the Sixties, some jazzy numbers and some bluesier ones kept our audience interested. Over 20 listeners at one point.
The Blue Flames
Well, actually, the show will be about the band’s founder and leader, Clive Powell, but the Blue Flames will crop up on a few tracks. Though we will be looking at Powell’s whole career, not just the few years with the band he founded. Come for Jazz pianist Clive Powell, and stay on for fusion keyboardist Georgie Fame.
Oh, wait, same person. Never mind…

268 Zawinul!
An examination of the work of Joe Zawinul outside of Weather Report, for the most part, with tracks from his earliest recordings and his last ones. Well attended with an appreciative audience including some new faces.
142R Peter Hammill
One of Hugh’s shows this one, as he’s the one with the big stash of stuff. A quirky performer, Mr Hammill, but one who nevertheless appealed to our audience, up to 22 at one point. Good numbers for us on a cold February night.
Peter Hammill
This week’s offering is a romp through the work of singer/songwriter and multiinstrumentalist Peter Hammill, a founding member of Van der Graaf Generator with a long and still ongoing solo recording career.

267 A Winter Warmer
Tracks with warmth as a common factor, and mostly quiet ones too, although we did get a bit rowdy towards the end. Very effective – we almost sent our audience to sleep – although they say they were just listening quietly. A successful show.
A Winter Warmer
Seeing as those of us in the northern hemisphere of the roughly potato-shaped oversized pebble we call Earth are in what is generally called “winter” and therefore experience relatively cold weather, it’s time to get warmed up. Since we can’t mail everybody a bottle of strong ale (i.e., a winter warmer), we’ll have to make do with songs concerned with warmth, heat, and comforting things.

140R UnCovered II
Another set of tracks related only by their titles, and a good collection too. Well attended, with up to 28 listener connections. I was still suffering from the after-effects of pneumonia and had no voice, or energy, so wasn’t there. I hope this wasn’t a harbinger
Un-Covered II
This week, we will uncover another bunch of un-covered songs, i.e., tracks that share the same title, but nothing else. This format typically makes for a wide variety of styles, so we’re in for an interesting ride there.

266 The Eyes Have It
Tracks having the eyes, the windows of the soul, as part of their title and subject. This one assembled by Hugh, and very well appreciated too.
I was once again unable to attend as the virus had left me with bacterial pneumonia and I was really quite ill. Fortunately the antibiotics were doing their job. Unfortunately I was the battleground. Voice had completely gone.
I’m told that up to 20 listeners were connected, which is a very rewarding number indeed in a chilly January.
