Border Radio

Mixing cowpunk with current sounds ,  classic country rock and gothic bewilderment. The sounds of the experts covering Bob Dylan. All the stuff i personally love. 

Bernie's playlist, presented by Kirsten. Bernie chose about a third new releases, a third new takes on old sounds and a third just plain strange and wonderful, altogether a great show. Kirsten's highlights - Patti Smith singing a youthful version of "Hey Joe" and a strange a wonderful Lee Hazlewood song. Congratulations Chloe Swarbrick, Auckland Central's new MP, a good result for inner city folk. 

A few of the old standards but some new discoveries too. All them witches (thanks bFM Drive), Adam Hattaway & The Haunters (Thanks Pennie from the monday 1-4). A sweet Creedence cover from WIllie & Paula Nelson (Thanks TV show soundtracks). And topping up the dose of Drive by Truckers and Purple Mountains. (Thanks collapse of civilisation in the United States). And more from Sammy Brue, Hayley Thomas King and a beautiful Elizabeth Cotton version of Shake Sugaree.

Downinto the blues hole for a chat with OG Darren Watson. Talkin' music, having a few laughs and dropping Avantadale Bowling Club & Tupac alongside Lightning Hopkins and Lyle Lovett 'cos hip hop is blues. And folk too.
