It’s a cold week, but the cockles of the TFL heart were warmed by a jingle, a Joey, some soul and a Frisbee. Have I been drinking or taken a knock to the head, or does this all make sense ? Listen and find out….

In a rare turn of events, this week’s show is an all-UK affair. By complete and utter chance, the tracks that I selected as making up a coherent ‘whole’ for TFL157 turned out to all come from this sceptered isle. So don your Brit-centric ears and cop a load of this.

A special ‘One From Leith’ this week after a hellish & very, very long week at work with too many late nights stuck at my desk. Not having a chance to prepare a normal show gave me the perfect opportunity to play a track I’ve been toying with playing since 2005, and which I had only recently discussed with other podcasters. So, prepare for an epic piece from Phideaux and journey with him through the various movements it incorporates. It was the first track I heard from him when I discovered his music way back in 2005, and it’s what made me sit up and really take notice of what he was doing. And in other news, I’ve fixed the ‘vocals from the back of a long tunnel’ issue that some people had been experiencing when listening to TFL on various machines…

Two brand new albums from familiar TFL bands feature on this week’s show, from Scotland and Sweden. Double tracks from each – I’m spoiling you !! Not only that, but a brand new Edinburgh band for you too. And hear what happens when an accident occurs. How many people will stop and help ? Can you guess ?

The clocks have gone back, the economy’s going down the toilet and winter is well and truly on the way. Dark, skint and cold – what a combination ! Never fear though, as TFL continues to bring you excellent new music, FREE, every week. And with this week’s artists, you’re getting the best on offer from around the world to fill your cash-stapped ears with. TFL – always value for money.

In between working 10 and 11 hour days at work last week, I spent what little free time I had left working on hosting an episode of the Association of Music Podcasting’s weekly showcase podcast, AMPed. I’d signed up many, many months back to do the show this week – unaware of what bad timing it would end up being, given the project situation at work. But never mind – I thoroughly enjoyed putting together other people’s choices in an order that I felt worked, and hearing music that’s completely new to me is always a thrill.

So, this week you’ll be hearing a TFL-hosted episode of AMPed rather than the usual Three From Leith. If you like what you hear, be sure and subscribe to AMPed and get more of the same from a variety of hosts all year round.

Enjoy !

Time for a spot of relaxation with Three From Leith; music with a meditative mood, so mellow that I got utterly unwound during the recording and began to drift off on the New Waves lapping around my ears. Let TFL take the strain out of your working week !

In an strange state of mind when I sat down to record this, I decided on an eclectic, odd and jaunty selection of music this week. Where else will you get Howard Hughes, monkeys having breakfast, sozzled dormice and plank-walking all in the same show ? Nowhere other than Three From Leith – regularly shaking you out of your comfort zone for something a little different…

Uh-huh. Once again I was short of time and said the show would be shorter than usual, and once again I somehow managed to blether on until the show ended up being the normal length. I’m incorrigable – please don’t encourage me !! Anyway, another fine selection of independent, unsigned or under-appreciated artists for your enjoyment – and a message from The Azores. Three From Leith – spreading the musical word across the world.

During the recording of the show, I realised that I’d missed TFL’s 3rd birthday which was back on the 8th September . Oh well – once you get to a certain age these things no longer seem important !! With tales of cycling derring-do and a high-rise squirrel who’s causing havoc with my nuts (ahem !), it’s another exciting episode featuring three more excellent bands for your listening pleasure.
