Two bits of information pertinent to the Bastille Day RADIOLA! in honor (?) of Cheney's visit. I just discovered that the original part three of this program was edited wrong and has been playing in its erroneous form on Live365 for weeks. I've corrected the soundfile, which will be removed at after this Friday. Owing to the popularity (in certain circles) of this program, I have archived it (in its correct form) permanently at a-info radio with both 32k and 128k versions available HERE.
A new RADIOLA! will be heard this Friday at 7 PM ET on WHCL--the playlist is still a gleam in my mind's eye.

No Radiola Friday--But Nostalgia Nonetheless!!
I won't be doing the show this Friday, August 25, but Mark Fuller, the host of The Big Sound of Retro Radio, will be in the studio from 6-8 PM ET on WHCL. Mark is a veteran DJ, and his program will take you back 30 or 40 years to EXACTLY what local radio used to sound like. He uses vintage recordings, commercials, and jingles for the uncanny effect of radio deja vu.
Then, at 8 PM ET, Jonathan Mead will present a show of great music that you are unlikely to hear on any other radio station. Jonathan hosts WHCL's World Music program "Anywhere But Here" on Monday nights, but his Friday shows do not shun music from these shores.
Many thanks to Mark and Jonathan for filling in for me this week!

"Revolutionary Rhythm" 6 PM ET, August 18, 2006
(Week 52)
UPDATE: The recording of this program was beset with so many technical glitches that it required considerable editing before being uploaded to Live365. Plus, I tended to get on too many topics that are not germane to the music. I apologize for this truncated RADIOLA!--and to anyone who may actually have heard the program go out live. Masochists can download the restored, unexpurgated version HERE.
It's to the barricades in this special four-hour edition of RADIOLA! Of course, not all revolutions are wide in scope--some are merely personal. And those, perhaps, are the most radical of all.
The RADIOLA! Revolution begins tonight at 6 PM ET on WHCL. (It will not be televised.)
