Show starts with a few old and familiar tunes from REM, The Hangdogs, Pixies doing Neil Young kind of thing, then dips into plenty of brand new tunes mainly from out of South Carolina thanks to a sampler I found on-line. Cool bands like Kid Trails, She Returns from War and Slow Motion Cowboys. Then disaster strikes!! An attempt to get fruity with the '70's vibe goes awry about halfway through the show - but stick in there 'cos it comes back with more new tunes from the likes of Late Night TV some lovely local stuff from Kendall Elise and Emily Fairlight, a Lone Justice blast from the past and Star Anna who I haven't played for a while. SO yeah, nice show with a messy interlude. Aroha mai !

A fun show with the theme 'Geographical features'. Lots of roads, a ton of rivers, a mountain or two, some moons, valleys and a even chemical plant. A real mixed bag featuring Reb Fountain, Marty Robbins, Dolly Parton, Sarah Shook and The Disarmers, Robert Earl Keen, Robert Ellis, The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Little Feat and that awesome pairing of Delaney Davidson and Barry Saunders.

So I caught the last hour of record store day and scored a Dolly Parton album and the soundtrack to the the Jim Jarmusch movie Dead Man, so I built the radio show around them. It was pretty fun. Dolly, Neil, movie music, noisy guitars, lovely female vocals, dark gothic themes and hooning tunes including Darcy Clay's cover of you know what.

Can you take away "no good cheatin'", "killed my baby down by the river", "all the farm stock have died", "I lost my job so I'm cooking meth, now I lost everything else too" and the similar themes and still have a two hour Border Radio show worth having? Is it OK to not be sad? This experiment features Jerry Jeff Walker, Neil Young, Dori Freeman, Jenny Don't and The Spurs, Natural Child, New Riders Of The Purple Sage, Magic Factory, The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, and even Townes Van Zandt as well as many more. Did it work ? You be the judge.
