Quotation
Of The Week ~ Confucius: Music produces a kind of pleasure which
human nature cannot do without.
[As
you may or may not know, i live in Canada, and for some reason KSHE
doesn't stream their audio to here; i have to connect via a VPN, to
spoof a non-Canadian address. This week, according to
https://whatismyipaddress.com/
i was listening from Cheney, Kansas once again.]
R.I.P.
Steve Cash of The Ozark Mountain Daredevils (1946-2019).
O.K.,
that sad news out of the way i'm delighted to be able to grade this
week's edition A-plus. The inclusion of Rory Gallagher automatically
means an A-plus, of course, but today's show merited it regardless.
The first hour alone was full of music i love, and the subsequent
three hours (minus commercials) barely let up the brilliant pace.
Certainly
there were a few obscurities scattered throughout, but all nice
stuff, and the only really annoying song was that by The Fraternity
Of Man – i hadn't heard it in perhaps thirty years and i can quite
happily go another thirty years without hearing it again. Apologies
to all you pot-heads out there who adore it and find it gut-bustingly
funny but that's just the way it is (baby).
On
a technical note, it wasn't a seamless four hours: the stream dropped
several times and i even had to reload it twice. It's difficult to
determine whose fault this was, though. My Internet connection did
seem a bit erratic this morning, but not much worse than usual. Maybe
the problem lay with KSHE? Or maybe the gremlin that lives inside the
box....
And
the damned show ended ten minutes early! Huh?!?
