Show 293 is recorded and ready to go as soon as I receive a replacement copy of one of the tracks from the band’s PR. Unfortunately, the track cuts off prematurely and I somehow failed to notice it until I was mixing the show on Friday night after finishing the recording. As soon as the new version of the track arrives, I’ll replace the old one, mix the revised show down and have it up in a jiffy!

Mixing TFL293

I know – I’ve been absent again for a VERY long time. There have been a number of reasons for this, but the main one has been that the podcasting PC has not been working and I’ve not been able to record.

However, the acquisition of a used laptop from an ex-work colleague in the last week, followed by the purchase of an external soundcard, means that I am now finally up and running again and I’ll be recording this week for release next Tuesday (27th January).

If there are any subscribers still there, thanks for hanging on and I’ll be in your ears again shortly!

I’m delighted and somewhat taken aback to have been nominated by a person or persons unknown for the ‘Personality’ section of the European Podcast Awards.

To whoever it was, thank you! – it’s nice to know that the work I do is appreciated and makes it all worthwhile.

If anyone would like to vote for me, please us the link below. Thanks 🙂

Sorry folks – there’ll be no show this coming week. Normal service should be resumed next week.

*** EDIT – the problem has been resolved and the file is now available. Thanks for standing by ! ***

There seems to be a problem getting Show 141 via iTunes – no idea what the problem is this time, but this is really starting to get annoying.

Please either download it directly or hang in there while I tear my hair out trying to get it sorted out…

For some reason that I can’t fathom, iTunes hasn’t picked up show 139 from last week. It’s shown up everywhere else I normally check, so I’m not sure what the issue is. Until I can get it fixed, please use the download link in the shownotes to grab the file. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I knew that my usual recording Friday was out last week because Jasna was coming for an extra night, so I planned to record on Thursday. And then on Thursday afternoon I got a phone call out of the blue from my best pal who was up from England for a few days, asking if we could go out that night. Result – my recording window for the week had been closed. As ever, feel free to raid the extensive show archive for your weekly fix of great independent music until normal service is resumed next week.

Just to let everyone know that there won’t be a regular Three From Leith this week – work and Christmas events have overtaken me and I have to start getting on with the Christmas show since I want to get it out before the big day !

So – next stop will be your annual dose of festive fun and frivolity courtesy of TFL. Keep checking those feeds….

I had to come home from work early on my usual recording day (Friday) with a completely seized-up and painful neck, so I wasn’t able to do anything more than sit stock-still on the sofa, dosed up on medication and applying heat to the area.

The rest of the weekend was spent taking it easy and recovering, so I didn’t get a chance to sit down and record at all.

I’ll be back bright and breezy next week; in the meantime, why not take a trawl through the archives and treat yourself to another ‘golden oldie’ moment ? Until then….

The feed problems that some listeners may have been experiencing have been resolved. Apologies for the delay in getting this ironed out !
