sixties soul sisters - 23rd nov 2008 - 2-3pm
Hey folks,
No prizes for guessing that this week's show features a selection of fine, female-voiced soul. I'll be playing a selection of up-tempo groovers and a few love-gone-wrong type slower numbers, all from the 60s. Expect: Aretha Franklin, Dinah Washington, Erma Franklin, Irma Thomas, Laura Lee and more.
This week's Weird But Wonderful vote is between a couple of songs by blokes, but which are dedicated to women-kind in general:
1. James Brown - It's A Man's, Man's, Man's World http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=RZMgLQuTluA
James loves the ladies. In a pre-PC kind of way.
(Swiftly followed in the same video by 'I Got You (I Feel Good)' - Nice!)
2. Daddy Kae & Yvonne - Eleven Commandments of Woman http://cowbell.fm/track/37551-daddy-kae-yvonne-eleven-commandments-of-woman
Yvonne teaches Daddy the rules, in a funky stylee.

funky president! sun 16th nov 2008 - 2-3 pm
Hey folks,
So, there I was trying to decide what to do this week's show on, and then that Obama bloke went and got himself elected...
This week's show is a collection of songs about political and social empowerment; from artists such as James Brown, Isley Brothers, John Lennon, Public Enemy, Lee Dorsey and others.
Ultimately Barack Obama's presidency may not turn out to be all that different from any other American regime, but surely we're allowed to hope, 'pray' and day-dream until it all goes wrong!?!?
The Weird But Wonderful vote is between a couple of versions of a Temptations' classic:
1. The Heptones - Message From A Black Man
A Coxsone Dodds produced reggae version: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=e8xN5YXHUoU
2. The Whatnauts - Message From A Black Man
Sweet funky soul version: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=u7tLrNLL-PQ
(Original Temptations version: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=XDeasoVNgoI)

the feeling they call the blues - sunday 2-3 pm
Hey folks,
Journeys goes back to it's normal length of 1 hour from this week, so tune in at 2 PM for an hour of Blues greats. Artists likely to feature include Muddy Waters, BB King, John Lee Hooker, Robert Johnson, T-Bone Walker, Leadbelly and more.
The Weird But Wonderful vote is between a couple of songs with 'Blues' in the title, but which aint actually Blues tunes:
1. Masters At Work - MAW Latin Blues http://www.last.fm/music/Nuyorican+Soul/_/MAW+Latin+Blues
From the Nuyorican Soul album. It's cool, but it's far too cheery to be the Blues! It's not on youtube, but you can hear it at the above last.fm link (just click 'play' on the wee player at the right of screen).
2. Kasabian - Butcher Blues http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1gPDWWp-Mg
From their debut album (when they were good). At least this one attempts to be kind of depressing. :)
