Kia ora Mosen At Largers.

A brief comment from one of our listeners has already prompted some very interesting discussion about blind people dating. I realise this can be a personal subject, so if you’d like to write a contribution on it and don’t want your name read out, just let me know in the subject or the first line of the message. You have my word that I will honour your confidentiality request. If we feel safe to talk about this openly, I think we’ll get a fascinating range of experiences and perspectives.

Hello there,
It’s another jam packed fun filled show on a little bit of this and a little bit of that.
I will give you some info about songs that you are hearing and you never know what else I might say.
In the second hour, we say goodbye to something South African.
So in the final hour, I will be playing South African songs I have featured over the last six months.

Introduction

Mushroom FM has moved to a new server for broadcasting to you. This is a bit like a terrestrial radio station changing frequency. We are transmitting on both the old and new virtual frequencies at the moment, but soon the old one will stop working, so it's important to read this post to see whether you need to do anything, most people will not. This post starts with the most common scenarios and gets more technical as we move to less common ones, but we believe we've covered all the ways you listen.

The Juke In The Back” focuses on the “soul that came before rock n’ roll,” the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.

Shw Mae! (Hi!) Sara Hillis yma (here) to tell you that we're going Welsh this week on Come by the Hills in honour of Saint David's Day, which I'm sure has been celebrated at least in some fashion this weekend in Wales, and which actually falls on March 1. I think it's a holiday and everything! We're going to be playing music mostly in the Welsh Language (yn Cymraeg,) but we will not be confining ourselves strictly to Folk music. We have a little bit of music by Harry Secombe, formerly of The goons, as well as some lovely music by Aled Jones, celebrated Welsh Soprano and then later Tenor.

Hey y'all, come on down to the Doo-wop Corner this week for some great music from the fifties and sixties. Recall memories and make new ones.
Sunday evenings at 6: PM. ET to 8: Pm Et and Thursday Mornings from 7: to 9: AM Et repeated for our friends in the UK.

This week on Deep Dive, where we focus on one artist for one hour, we spend time with a Californian rock band from the 60s, the Turtles. We know what I mean, think Eleanor is swell, and are happy together.

Join me at 4 PM Eastern Monday, 8 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Wednesday Eastern, 10 PM in Australia.

Email me Graeme@MushroomFM.com with your request for a band or artist, tell me your favourite songs and your memories of them. Or attach a sound recording and join me on the show.
