Today on your bFM Breakfast: Dr. Bryce talks the big scoop that no one seems to care about; surprise - Delaney, Mike and Sarah all like butter; we bother Marky Ramone at his hotel; Troy calls you a Deutsche Mundharmonika (or something); and Pearl enjoys a good sonic sob.
Amelia takes over! And after some initial *technical difficulties*, we end up with a show filled with ringing telephones, mournful ballads, and warbly mod stompers.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Mike's keeping What Am I? almost too easy this morning; His Worship has a secret tip for skidding around the petrol tax; Sam's here before his hiatus, talking Handmaid's Tale; it's heavy stuff with Dr. Thomas Gregory; and Mikey must-ask about Ben's moustache.
Lots of new things in here after a little snoop around bandcamp. New Americana from Western Centuries, The Hypochondriacs, American Aquarium, Deadman De Los Santos and the Thieving Birds. Some comfortable old boots to slip into with Neil Young, Townes, Cowboy Junkies. Social Dostortion kick off a bit of a tangent that includes La Luz and The Growlers. And Sarah Shook and The Disarmers and Anna Tivel making up the new favorites.
The good deputy brings you a selection of songs that are heavy on story. Including Paul Kelly, Robert Earle Keen, Frank Black and The Catholics, The Pogues, Evan Dando, Eilen Jewel and more.
This week's show featured new music from Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, the Free Nationals, Rizvan and more. Sam also dives into two new reissues in the form of the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus and Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue. And he also pays tribute to the Geto Boys Bushwick Bill who passed away this week.
