  • And now Polite, by Bri.

    I love the eclectic nature of the playlist. Always something good on this show

    Three in a row from the genius they call Tom Waits - heaven.

    He played a Syd Barrett track for me last week, was absolutely delighted. His show would go hand in hand with Kelly-Anne Byrne's Beat Goes On on Today FM, sadly Kelly gave up doing the show, but Creedon would handle a similar crossover probably not as much electronica as such but alternative, psychedelic, prog, trad, folk rock, hard rock, rock n roll, psychobilly, rockabilly, Americana, blues, jazz and funk.

    If you want to get into it, you got to get out of it. (Hawkwind 1982)

    I found out last week that Kelly-Anne Byrne is doing a show on Twitch on Saturday nights, and she uploads the show onto Soundcloud afterwards. She played a load of her 45s last weekend and did a Stevie Wonder tribute the weekend before!

    Ending with ‘So What’ by Miles Davis - good call :)

    RIP Jimmy Cobb.

    That whole album Kind Of Blue is outstanding. And you’re so right, what a great finish

    If ye like this sort of stuff I'd suggest Craig Charles on BBC6 Satrudays from 6-9. Brilliant funk and soul show, it used to be a great lead in to the beat goes on!




  • Ah, Echo Beach. Takes me back to a brilliant holiday on Vigie Beach in 1980. We changed the lyrics to suit. Magic days.

    Thanks (again!) John

    And now Gruff Rhys!

    Good man, John :)




  • Boo hoo. Couldn’t get John to stream this evening. “Please try again later”. It’s some sort of punishment for me complaining about the age of the RTÉ news headlines recently. :(

    Can you not get it on FM?


  • Registered Users Posts: 294 ✭✭Bus Boy


    Great list again. Bleeding Heart Pigeons, Elbow and a cracker from Denise Chaila. More to come... like Cocteau Twins

    I don’t have a radio! Having gone all high tech, there’s obviously some issue with my Google Nest thingy, and TuneIn - but only with Radio 1. Everything else works ok. And I’m listening in tonight (to another great show!) on an iPad. Curiouser and curiouser.

    Ah well ....

    I normally use the RTE radio 1 app on the phone to a speaker, if I have to stream. Rarely a problem. Although if the problem is at RTE's end it's all a matter which app you use


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    Or plug headphones, which act as an aerial , into the phone. Depending on your phone you should have an FM radio app.

    Pretenders, Tourists (prequel to Eurythmics) and the great Johnny Cash - we're on a roll.
