Show Notes
Todd Leiter-Weintraub wrote a superb review of The City's only album which led me to include one of its songs on this week's show. He's also the guy responsible for Hop On Pop, which I played near the end of the show.
I discovered the Marti Jones song from DJ Calc's show. Also this week, I played several other songs he's played over the past couple of months that I already knew (Shoes, Fleetwood Mac, Arcade Fire) but never gotten around to playing before.
Finally I want to recommend two KTAL shows you can find on Mixcloud - I mentioned the Cosmic Troubadours on the show for reminding me about Gertch's Folly, a local Americana duo that made on EP and then went their separate ways. They have a unique show that's a blend of rootsy music and their conversations are very informative and entertaining.
Also I was *this close* to putting a song I heard on Prog Rock Nation but I dropped it at the last second since I already had a really long song and another fairly long song. Julie Sanchez, the host, knows a lot about all kinds of music and, though her show is focused on prog, there's a lot of diversity in the type of songs she plays, musically speaking.
Hey Dean,
ReplyDeleteIt's Todd from Hop On Pop. Thanks so much for spinning "The Ain't No Race"! I really appreciate the airtime and exposure. Also, I'm glad that you enjoyed the review of The City.
You're good people!
Thanks for commenting, Todd. Yes, I've heard of that The City album but never took the time to search it out, much less listen to. Your review gave me the impetus to fix that oversight. I was happy to include a song from one of under-appreciated albums and less known chapters of Carole King's musical life.
DeletePlus "This Ain't No Race" is a great song! I was proud to play it.
