Show 150 – Nicking My Nuts

September 23rd, 2008

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

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.

Show 149 – Mixtape II

September 16th, 2008

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

A bad cold, recovery in time for Pedal For Scotland and the event itself meant that I wasn’t able to devote the time to a normal TFL this week, but it did give me the excuse to put out another MixTape that I’d concocted recently. This is a bit more of a rocker than the last one !

Movie55 – ‘Anyone In There’
Czeduce – ‘Smashed’
Day Out – ‘Setreseze’
Death Of A Dancer – ‘Exit Body’
Bombing Run – ‘At Least’

Show 148 – Continental Drifter

September 9th, 2008

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

Swinging from Scotland to Australia via Spain in mainland Europe, this week is a bit of an trans-continental trip. I wish we had a little of the European or Australian weather here in Scotland; still very wet and now it’s getting very cold – I saw frost on the ground last week just after 6am. It’s been a depressing non-summer, so it’s time to cheer myself (and you) up with some great new music.

No show this week

July 22nd, 2008

Many apologies – I didn’t manage to get a show together this week after time ran away with me. I’ll be back next week, but in the meantime why not take a listen to last week’s Made In The UK Show 30, where I made an appearance ?

See you on Tuesday !
