BBQ going & great tunes 👌

Studio lost its view way back, Jeb... not much of a view when it was an eternally empty courtyard...

6:20 PM, June 13th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hi Wally... I like how you're often barbecuing at this hour on this day of the week... a soundtrack for Saturday night cooking, dining or whatever fires you up

6:22 PM, June 13th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
You're welcome, Wally. It's always rewarding to listen to a collection of someones playing someone's songs, when the someone's songs are so good

I was thinking this was the Slits, I have this somewhere. They found out about me!

7:37 PM, June 13th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
Better found than lost, Mr. JC... that somewhere being transatlantic

Good tunes.

Good to hear

Possibly very much could be Steve! I see your Japanese is coming along. Lovely out there now, after a rather chilly start.

Quite like that Khruangbin / Leon Bridges EP. I hope more is on the way from them

7:47 PM, June 13th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
Dave, google translated.. yes, sun just disappearing, comfortable with the view from this side of the glass ...

7:49 PM, June 13th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
enbee, a new album from Khruangbin due in the next couple of weeks, unsure of any possible vocal collaborators
