Maiden Voyage (no actual maidens present)
It's been 13 years but I have my very own show again. I remember 13 years ago. I was younger, more innocent, more idealistic. I knew how the world should work. I had hair. So much has changed since then. Especially with the hair. I'm going to play some tunes that you won't hear on regular radio stations. I'd love to hear from listeners about what you enjoyed, or what you hope I'll never play again. It's all in good fun.

Spotlight on Egg. This British trio, of Clive Brooks, Dirk Mont Campbell, and Dave Stewart, recorded three albums of often-whimsical, classically informed jazz-rock in a style that is now known among collectors as "Canterbury". Stewart went on to play in Hatfield and the North and National Health, as well as Bill Bruford's first band. |

Free music collective l'Infonie was founded by Walter Boudreau and featured, among others, Raoul Duguay on trumpet. They released four experimental records in the late 60s/early 70s, imaginatively titled Vol 3, Vol 33, Vol 333, and Vol 3333. The second of these, also known as "Mantra" is a free-form performance of Terry Riley's In C. It is available on CD as part of a reissue of Riley's Reed Streams on the Organ of Corti label. |
