Yeah, I took a week off. Even I take vacation. But of course that leads to a HUGE new playlist with artists ranging from Smashing Pumpkins to Nitefire to my friends Fear 2 Stop to Ms. Kash to Gaffa Tape Sandy to Wishy to Cody Fry to Louis Cole to Dinosur Jr to David Gilmour and so much more. Enjoy!
ALBUM SHOW NOTES
Lious Cole is one of those guys in the music business that shows up just about everywhere as a guest or a producer. He has often showed up at concerts by Vulfpeck, Snarky Puppy, Cory Wong, and Jacob Collier just to sit in for a song as a vocalist, a drummer, a guitarist - just about anything.While he has a few of his own albums under his belt he's just as well know for his work with others. But he's now just released a new album called "nothing" in collaboration with Metropole Orkest, the Orchestra in The Netherlands that has guested with a wide variety of Jazz and Pop artists, including an album with Cory Wong just last month. This album is a potential modern day "Days of Future Past".
I am loving this new album and much of it defies description. I don't think it will have any huge hits, but it's the kind of thing you just put on the stereo in a recliner with the lights out and a glass of wine. So we're going to feature it this week on the album show.
The Album Show plays on Thursdays at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.
RFC 2433 & 2434
For those of you who stay away from Spotify the current week's additions will be played on Wednesdays. This is a change from prior programming: what we're going to do going forward is just play the music added this week only. Every other day will be the usual rotation, but we set aside Wednesdays for just the new additions for the week. This week that's 58 songs (a new record for one week!) which we will play in the same order that they're in on the Spotify playlist of the same name up at the top of this post. So if you tune in at just about any time on Wednesday you will hear the whole playlist. This is ONE playlist with two weeks worth of music. 84 songs!
10 at 10
One last programming note: Every Saturday at 10pm and again on Sunday at 10am and 10pm we will feature our show "10 at 10", where we play 10 (and sometimes 11 or even 12!) songs from a year we pick at random. Again, all times are PST. Last week I played a group of songs from 1967, and this week we're looking into the more recent past, and I'll tell you now that we're going overboard because we missed a week.
As always, you can go to https://global.citrus3.com:2020/public/radiofreecalifornia to listen to the station, and there is an imbed below. And did you know the station is available as an app? It's only for Google Play (sorry iphone users - Apples terms and conditions were too restrictive for me) but you can listen on your phone at your convenience too.
No cheap shots this week. I was on vacation and not thinking about this stuff. But because I love you, here's Toad the Wet Sprocket playing an acoustic version of one of their biggest hits:
