Show 227 – The Christmas Show 2010

Thursday, December 23rd, 2010

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe !

Here we are again, almost at the end of the year, and it’s time for the legendary Christmas Show! Delayed by a few days due to the late provision of recorded parts from Jasna, I was almost scuppered again when the software crashed right at the end of the 2hr period of recording, and lost everything other than the first three tracks! Fortunately, I’d enjoyed putting it together so much that it wasn’t a hassle to do it again; any excuse to listen to all the tracks one more time:-) So, suck on a sprout, wrap your molars round a mince pie, tickle the turkey and immerse yourself in a fantastic seasonal musical selection box. Enjoy & have a wonderful holiday.

Winzenried aka Hollywood Drunks – ‘We Three Kings’

Kids, eh? Totally unreliable… 😉 Jasna promised to deliver me some vocal files by Tuesday night, and in the end she didn’t get round to them until Wednesday night, so I’m now set to record on Thursday. I might get the show up before the end of the day, otherwise it’ll be Christmas Eve.

Christmas Show coming on Thursday

Isn’t technology wonderful? Yes, it’s more often than not a wonderful enabler, but when it goes wrong it’s a right royal pain in the backside! Hopefully I’ve resolved my PC issues to a level that – whilst not totally cured – will enable the podcast to proceed with much less trauma than the last few weeks of non-appearances! So, settle back, dust off those ears and enjoy the welcome return of great independent music!

A Family of Strangers – ‘Don’t Forget’

The Boat People – ‘Antidote’

Serial Twin – ‘Things That I’m Fearing’ / ‘I’m Wrong’

The soundbed was ‘Aurora’ by Bryan El
Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken

PC still misbehaving…

Monday, December 6th, 2010

Yes, no joy again this week with the recording. I had to abandon it yet again after many failed attempts to get something which didn’t sound like fragments of a conversation spliced together from odd tapes.

I’m on holiday after Friday 10th, so I’ll get a chance to take an extended period to overhaul the PC, clear out the CPU-hogging nonsense, defrag the HDs and install & run a few clean-up tools. After that, I should be able to get things working again.

Keep your fingers & toes crossed for me!
