  • 110 Jack Bruce in performance

    For a change, a show consisting solely of live tracks, from the under-appreciated Jack Bruce.  All from his work with small groups of friends under his own leadership.  This one was put together by Hugh, who is a big fan of Jack Bruce, and chose a great selection of tracks.

  • 108 Lost in 2018

    Our first show of the year, and as is now traditional (as far as we can make it, being only a few years old ourselves) the show looked at artists and musicians who left us in 2018.

    Notes, and artist suggestions, were contributed by Malaclypse and Hugh, as it was a very busy year, and we put in as many mentions as we could.

    We had thirty listeners, which is very pleasing for the first show of the year – thanks to you all – bring a friend?

  • 105 The Who, part 2

    A slightly smaller audience than usual, on Armistice Day, which may have been one reason for it.  We covered the two albums that The Who produced after Keith Moons death, and the recent comeback album.  But most of the show was about solo work from the three, dominated, inevitably, by Pete Townshend.

    A couple of late additions to the postshow were the Stephen Stills/Manassas version, the original version of How Far, to contrast it with the Roger Daltrey cover we had in the show, and a gratuitous play of Gordon Lightfoot’s Endless Wire right at the end of the postshow.
