We have had a fantastic response to Mushroom FM's new Alexa skill and Google action. Now we are delighted to announce that Mushroom Escape is available with a skill and action of its own.
I was saddened to learn of the death of Meatloaf last week at the age of 74. His voice range and power were amazing, and his Bat Out Of Hell album was outstanding. Deep Dive will feature the programme on him made last week as a tribute, as a last encore programme before the Australian holidays end for me.
Tune in at 4 PM Monday Eastern, which is 8 AM in eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 10 PM in eastern Australia.
Deep dive, where we focus on one artist for one hour, on mushroom FM, home of the fun guys.
Not only have we vastly expanded our music library from our four decades of magic Mushroom memories, not only are we rocking a new Alexa skill and Google action, but we're now giving you a chance to hear Gary G every week day. Join Gary direct from South Africa at 3 AM and again at 3 Pm Eastern for A Little Bit of This and a Little Bit of That. It's a pleasant miandar through the four decades that we play with a bit of fun conversation and humour thrown in for good measure.
The Mosen Explosion was set to return on Monday with an invigorated format packed with new features. But that has been postponed by a day as we take the hour to pay tribute to meat Loaf, whose death was recently announced.
Flamboyant, larger than life, a member of a great rock partnership and singer of one of the biggest selling albums of all time, Meat Loaf was part of the soundtrack of a generation.
Yes, it's almost that time of January again, time to dust off the kilts and dig into the Haggis and celebrate the man whose poetry and song have made Scotland famous the world over. Yes, it's Robby Burns Day on January 25, so we're doing our usual celebrations this week on Come by the Hills. Known as the peasant poet, Robert Burns wrote poetry about love, nature, politics and many other aspects of Scottish life as he knew it.
As the Mushroom FM programming spins up to full speed for 2022, we have several exciting improvements to report including a dramatically expanded music library from our four decades and an even easier to use accessible online player. However, the big news we’d like to cover today is the availability of our very own Alexa skill and Google Action.
Hi.
Well after a rather long and relaxing summer break, I'm back with Damo's All Day Breakfast for 2022.
this week, in addition to the usual array of Aussie and Kiwi music, I'm reviewing my latest toy. It's a device called a Network Radio, and it's basically the ham radio you have when you haven't got a ham radio, or, for that matter, a ham license. To find out what I'm on about, you'll need to tune in.
Hi, I’m Scott Best, and I’m honoured to be looking after Steve Cutway’s time slot while he’s away. The fun starts this Saturday!
I’m hosting a new show called Easy Street. If you like The Early Years, I think you’ll enjoy my show as well. I’ll be playing easy listening favourites from the 50s, 60s and 70s, along with standards from the Great American Songbook, by classic and contemporary artists. I’ll also throw in some big band and instrumental tunes for good measure.
From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 6pm Saturday in NZ, 4pm in Sydney and 5am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movies Fort Apache from 1948 and In the Heat of the Night from 1967.
Fort Apache is a 1948 American Western film directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne and Henry Fonda.
The film was the first of the director's "cavalry trilogy" and was followed by She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949) and Rio Grande (1950), both also starring Wayne.
Deep dive is playing two more on encore shows before we return to live programming. This week we will feature the incredible talents of American singer Linda Ronstadt. This show was played in 2021.
Tune in at 4 PM Eastern on Monday, which is 8 AM Tuesday in eastern Australia. Alternatively at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 10 PM in eastern Australia.
Enjoy the music, and start thinking about who you would like to propose for deep dive to make a program on. Send your emails to graeme@mushroomfm.com
