(Week 439)
This RADIOLA! contemplates feckless hubris and the romance of (self?) destruction.
RADIOLA! streams continuously from my Live365 station. Fatal overconfidence-cast here. Each RADIOLA! program is sent to subscribers on my mailing list (email here).
On this program I mention that I am writing for The American Rag, a monthly publication dedicated to ragtime and early jazz. (Subscribe here to read it--it's print-only.)

"Beyond the Blue Horizon": a new video by Molly Ryan
Molly Ryan has produced a marvelously clever and delightful video in connection with the release of her new album, Let's Fly Away. (I just find it difficult to imagine Molly in any line of work that doesn't involve a rhythm section!)
At the 3:18 mark on the video there's a cameo appearance of Molly's father, Richard Ryan, reading the May 2015 issue of The American Rag. We're famous!
