24th February 2015 - Lots of 'What's in the Post?' tracks from all the CDs you send in to me coming up on this week's show.

Hi all

Well, I'm gradually getting through them all, listening to all the new great and good tunes from all the CD's you've been sending into the Show.  Sitting in front of the fire with a set of stickie notes, a pen and an old CD player whilst umpteen episodes of The Big Bang Theory role past my screen as my daughter sits there watching them for the umpteenth time as well.

So this week's show is another one of those shows with ALL the tracks featured from CD's sent in via 'What's in the Post?'    Hope you enjoy it?!

Obviously there is this week's 'What's in the Post?' but is there 'Time for Tom?' we'll have to wait and see.

17th February 2015 - Old Tunes and New Tunes .. it's all good Tunes... I Hope, on this Week's Show?

Hi all

Well another week and wondering what to play when I get an MP3 from a young Bristol artist called Alice Brewer with a brand new track she asked me play, so why not I thought and then off I went with the rest of the show; some more female artists from across the pond, a smattering of tracks from Bristol, Wiltshire and Cornwall and some classic crackly old blues.  Along with 'What's in the Post?' and maybe 'Time for Tom?' who knows.

But you can listen to the show again via this link:
