Got some blues for ya, some great local tunes off the system and handful from the 95bFM vinyl library. Very pleased with how the 'no power to the laptop' situation was handled and discovered perhaps the worst thing joe strummer ever did. you be the judge.
The great Ryan Adams redemption show. Gave him a shot after a chance encounter with a listener at a party in West Auckland. Played two songs. Still don't like him. Like MJ Lenderman though, so played him and like the track listing on my new shiny record of Neil Young and Crazy Horse 'Dume' - a repackage with exciting bonus tracks of Zuma from 1975, so played a version of Powderfinger you won't have heard. Played the Beyonce country song too - and liked that. Like the new Hurrah for the Riff Raff too. But Ryan's back in the naughty corner for eternity. I tried.

After an incredible Breakfast show due to a live performance by the one and only Reb Fountain, Elle attempts to match that freak with her show today. Listen back to see if she was able to do so.
The whole show was such great music, one person pulled in to a layby beside the Waikato River to listen and send a txt of thanks! Standout tracks included "Please Come On Inside" by Madeleine Peyroux, "The Dust" from The Kearns Family, "Spirits" from The Devil Makes Three and "Colours" from Black Pumas.
