Mara Carlyle -Late Junction

[Globaltruth]

There is no doubt we need more musical saw players presenting LJ & MC MC made a promising debut, perhaps a little over heavy on the term 'lo-fi' & some of the late night beats not to my taste, but her enthusiasm, & knowledge undeniably fresh - for example, the research into the Langley Schools Project version of Desperado added considerably.

So currently I'm hoping they might add her to the rota on a more regular basis. Oh & by the way MC don't get led astray by either Mr Luscombe or your producers courting haddock influences - beat your own path.

A debut I reckon...

I'm all for this guest presenter approach to music show slots. It should happen further and wider in the schedules for a healthier fruit and veg diet for the listener. Last night's LJ for example was worth the entrance fee for Montgomery Express alone, something which I haven't heard on the radio for around eight years. I just wish that Tallisman and the like did not have to be a contractual obligation

Well I agree- nearly. For me there was too much female voice of one type or another in the greater part of the programme. Otherwise excellent variety.

Interesting & doubtless accurate observation that completely passed me by...

[Paul Sherratt]

Well that was, I felt, a triumphant trio of broadcasts, confirming for me that the more people involved presenting their take on tunes, the merrier the results for the listener.

Blimey I remember AK playing that Lullaby from Jahlé.

Very moving to hear that again...

& the playlist is wrong of course with respect to the Sons of Kemet. But, hey, who's checking obsessively nowadays?

Brill Tues LJ from MC - just a quick note to make sure you LA types add it your list.
great segue just after the off.
And Sam Amidon - a new find for me.

Just got round to that today and right you were, Global. I'd already heard the other two shows as they went out and enjoyed them though I often wondered quite what was going on...whatever it was I tended to approve. However, for all the Sam Amidon and the rest it was Patience and Prudence that proved a real top treat.
