Radio Free D'ni

A show looking at just four bands from the ’70’s scene that became known as Krautrock.  Pre and post show sampled six more bands from that era.  We’ll certainly do more shows if the enthusiasm shown on the night is continued.

Our oldest tradition is to get Ed to compose at least one show per year, by selecting his favourite tracks from the past 12 month’s shows.  This year was particularly fruitful, and we had a good crop of choices, which had to be whittled down a little.  Everybody enjoyed the final result, and we had a max of 20 listeners, which, for Labor Day, was pretty good (so I’m told 🙂 )

We had an unscheduled open mic moment over the start of the last track in the show.  You think we’d be good at this by now, but even the best of us makes mistakes.  As far as I know, Ed does not drive a Ferrari.  Or a Mercedes, come to that.

A suggestion from both Hugh and Edison, and a favourite of Ed’s, we featured the songwriting and guitar virtuosity of Yorkshire’s Bill Nelson with his band Be-Bop Deluxe.  Managing to clash with Mysterium and the start of the holiday season, we nevertheless got into double figures in audience numbers, and enjoyed the show ourselves.  A short career for the band but full of great tracks.  Bill Nelson himself is still going.

A change in pace, not before time, and a very welcome response from you, our audience, with a maximum of 22 listeners, and holding at 20 for a lot of the show.  Which was put together by Hugh, taking a small look at one of his favourite musicians.

We even had dancing on the plaza, which is a very positive encouragement 🙂

All tracks were taken from the box set The Last Word: The Warner Brothers Years, from 2001.  Collaborations are noted in the title text.

A respite from weighty analyses of various people or groups, and a bit of relaxation with a Summer dance set, with a big dose of reggae-ish tracks because it’s hot and we don’t want to dance all night at a frantic pace.  I tried for a bit of diversity too, with jazz, blues, bossa nova and folk along with the rock, pop and reggae.

If you liked this show, let us know.  We already have one more in the pipeline.
