Wow! Does life get any better,
I feel truly blessed and had to wait for the tears of joy (en meer dan een traan) to clear from my eyes before I could write this.
That is one of the most beautiful things anyone has ever done for me.
I can also listen to the repeat so how lucky am I?
Thank you Wim and David.

Comment on LUKE PRESENTS :BEST OF BRITISH UNSIGNED by WHAT THE PUBLIC WANT THE PU...........

WHAT THE PUBLIC WANT THE PU........... — Tue, 21 May 2013 16:40:53 +0000

Best of British asked their 18,000 Facebook fans what genre would you like as a special show? And acoustic won. So this is the unplugged, unsigned special. Featuring some classic BoB tracks and some brand new songs.Best listened round a campfire with friends and a few beers. .

Anything Goes Features in retrospect Khagool.

A band that formed nearly 10 years ago and inploaded on their on success, a six piece Indie band from Cardiff playing in a Shoegazing style. The band released their first single Alpha Beta in 2004 and started touring the UK get high praise and recognition everywhere they played, even appearing on BBC Radio Wales as a band to look out for. In 2006 the band went in to the studio to record their début album and friction set it, infighting sent the band members there separate ways and as the band put it, “the surviving tracks have been uploaded to the cyber grave”. So a tribute to a band that went down well a venues, I have the surviving tracks and think we should here some of it.
Also on tonight’s show I will be playing tracks from The Sundancer, The Desert Willows, Neil Sturgeon, new track’s from The Fast Camels, Miles Kane. It wouldn’t be right not to pay tribute to the late great Ray Manzarek, ivory key’s tinkler of The Doors, who sadly passed away yesterday.
This weeks Rockology brings us the letter R. R is for Mitch Ryder. Mitch Ryder formed his first band (Tempest) when he was in high school, and the group gained some notoriety playing at a Detroit soul music club called The Village. The Detroit Wheels from Detroit, Michigan. They served as Mitch Ryder’s backup band from 1964–1967, and played on all his most successful records. The band had its origins in Detroit in the early 1960s. At this time, a young white singer by the name of William Levise, Jr., who was singing at a black soul club called The Village, met a rock & roll group which included McCarty, later of The Yardbirds, and the band became Billy Lee and the Rivieras. the band decided to change its name again. With the help of a phone book, Levise took the new stage name of Mitch Ryder, and Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels were born. R is also for The Rolling Stones. The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. The first settled line-up consisted of Brian Jones on guitar and harmonica, Ian Stewart on piano, Mick Jagger on lead vocals and harmonica, Keith Richards on guitar and backing vocals,Bill Wyman on bass and Charlie Watts on drums. The Stones were a key factor in the British Invasion of the American music scene in the mid sixties. The Stones gave us some of the greatest albums every made, like, Let It Bleed, Get Yah Ya Ya’s Out, Exile On Main Street and Sticky Fingers, the band also gave some legendary performance, 1969 Hyde Park, Concert in Memory of Brian Jones, who had died in that same week. The concert gave a début to Mick Taylor fresh out of John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, also The Rolling Stones Rock’n'Roll Circus featuring The Who, Jethro Tull, John Lennon. The Stones also signalled the end of the hippy dream with their tragic Altamont Show in which a member of the crowd was beaten to death by a heavy handed Security Guard (Hells Angels).

Hello Dave, Looking back at a nice show last night, you probably have made a few people happy: Dave and Jill with Mr. Buster’s beautiful keyboard rendition of “Somewhere over the Rainbow” and I hope your sister Diana with “A Woman in Love” by “The Singing mustache” from Holland. That last song, “Young at Heart” by Frank Sinatra is perhaps a beautiful, new challenge for me to try. In short: a good and varied one hour radio show (met een lach en een traan). Thanks, Wim Karmelk.

GREETING FROM THE USA — Tue, 21 May 2013 09:57:51 +0000

Hello listeners ,
Just a quick update, We enjoyed Kansas City – my presentation was very well received, as was my acceptance speech at the award presentation last night. In my presentation I focused on the recordings made at the time of Mississippi John Hurt’s rediscovery in 1963, which I discovered while researching my book.
The pork BBQ ribs here are fantastic you would all love them.
As in many American cities (except NY, NO, San Francisco) the downtown area is full of banks and offices and lacks atmosphere, but rather than the usual shopping malls, Kansas City has this fantastic Plaza area developed on a Spanish theme around 1922 – full of great architecture with statues and fountains everywhere, and lots of great restaurants.
The main wagon train routes west started from here (including the Santa Fe and Oregon Trails) around the 1840s and Jesse James did his bank robbing around here. He lived in Independence, Missouri, where we are going tomorrow. From there we are hoping to head west across the Great Plains and see Mount Rushmore, sites of the Battle of the Little Big Horn, where General George Armstrong Custer got his comeuppance, and the massacres of Sand Creek and Wounded Knee.
Just seeing on TV forecasts of tornados and golf ball sized hail tomorrow!
There’ll be lots of stories to share on air when I get back!
Best wishes to all of the team at DCR and of course the listeners. Look out for my next update and enjoy the SOS programmes.

SOS FROM THE VAULTS — Tue, 21 May 2013 08:11:24 +0000

Howdy from Dr-Phil. In this Tuesday’s show (Dunoon Community Radio Tuesday night 8:00 – 9:00 UK time) you’ll hear a repeat of an earlier show from last year. It was one of my favourites. I’ll be playing some great jazz from Eddie Condon following in the footsteps of Bix Biederbecke and Piedmont blues from Blind Boy Fuller, rather unusually playing some slide guitar. I’ll be talking about the foundations of Zydeco from the early forced migrations of the Acadians from Canada to Louisiana and the fusing of Cajun, blues and jazz to provide this vibrant musical form. Zydeco is dominated by the accordion and I must confess to viewing this instrument as rather limited until I heard zydeco. But, I’m sure a lot of you heard the amazing transatlantic sessions where Aly Bain and Scottish accordionist Phil Cunningham got together with American musicians to generate some really great sounds. Clifton Chenier was one of the greatest exponents of zydeco and I’ll be playing a couple of great tracks from him. I also have a great tale to tell about the time I stayed at the King Edwards Hotel in Jackson, Mississippi only to find that a celebration was underway aimed at recognising the hotels history as a place where some of the greatest early blues and string bands were recorded. I’ll be talking about some of the great musicians who recorded there and playing some of the music that was actually recorded there back in 1930. This program initially went out in the lead up to the National Mod in Dunoon last year when I played some music to emphasise the links between the ‘call and response’ music of Gaelic churches in Scotland and the Old Regular Baptists in East Kentucky. In addition to all this there’ll be the usual infusion of what some folks might call rock ‘n’ roll, some early country gospel from the Carter Family, jazz from Tuba Skinny and I’ll be playing perhaps the most famous train wreck song in country music, the Wreck of the Old ’97 by the Skillet lickers. What a prospect. I’m looking forward to it. I hope you can join me.
