Radio Free D'ni

A show dedicated to the one and only soul-funk-RnB-fusion band with horns from California, Tower of Power.  Much more funky than our usual fare and well appreciated by the audience too.

A look at the music of this evergreen and long-serving singer and songwriter, who’s still touring today.  We looked mostly at the earlier parts of his career with our show.  Maybe there’s a part 2 to come 🙂

A selection of Van Morrison’s tracks from the Eighties, a time when he was more esoteric and spiritual in his works, but not without some more firey stuff.

We do promise you something different, and this show was an example.  A set of superb musical theater songs from original cast recordings for the most part, recalling the life’s work of a truly original composer and lyricist.

Our now-traditional summer show where Ed looks back ove the previous years new shows and picks his favourite tracks.  A goodly crowd turned up to listen and the general opinion was – it’s a hit.

A show highlighting just some of the talents of Richard Thompson, guitarist singer and songwriter of unnervingly great skill and seemingly no specific desire for fame.  We covered a bit of his days with Fairport Convention, some of his work with Linda Peters/Thompson, some acoustic and some electric solo guitar work.   Up to 19 connections,…
