Blue of the Night: Irish radio at its finest

    This has to be the finest music programme on Irish radio. I rarely listen to radio after I leave the car so I rarely listen to it at night. I just dropped out in the car and turned on LyricFM and it was sublime. They played a version of 'Both Sides Now' which I had never heard (it wasn't the Clannad/Paul Young version). Lovely stuff. Because there's so little talking I'll have to check the playlist later to find the name. Then they played a famous tune in Spanish guitar and I was wrecking my head trying to find out what it was. 'Piano Sonato No. 14'! Refreshingly different.

    The presenter finally said something. His name, Éamonn Lenihan, and this: "That time of the night when I'm mindful that less talk equals more music". (Would that a certain waffler on LyricFM every weekday morning could have this as his philosophy. We can dream. )

    Congratulations LyricFM on creating a very fine programme.
