I'm Still Hear
After a long break...several months; because...weird thing...I had a stroke in January. But now, as part of my healing path, I'm preparing a new show. Check back here later or get on my mailing list...just email me at nelson at wombnet dot com, and say you want to be on it. Or if you are on mixcloud...just watch out for a notification. It's called 'Still Hear'. Playlist and links will be posted on this site in due course. It is a collision of several incomplete playlists from my past...mainly 'Songs My Daddy Taught Me' about the music I inherited from my father's naive taste. Another playlist involved in this pile up is 'Time'...which is all songs mentioning, or about Time. Plus a few other tunes that grabbed my ear. This is very probably the last gasp for Eclectic Music For Mind and Bodhi...unless I get that call/email from the BBC that I've been waiting for for 20 years...well, you never know. But that is unlikely and would be a fookin miracle.
Below you will find a direct link to download the whole thing, and a link to Mixcloud where you can go to stream it. I feel I must apologise for the many mistakes in my commentary...but you see I currently have the short term memory and attention span of a fish. One mistake in particular that I want to correct is that I refer to Peter Hook as the bass player and vocalist of Joy Division...that was of course the remarkable Ian Curtis. Hook was the bassist and principle song writer.
Here is the playlist:
