This used to be a great listen
What I loved about this podcast when I first came across it was that it found a way to tell entertaining and moving stories about music in a surprising and honest way. But the recent episode about John Fahey might as well have been an article in the despicable U.K. paper The Daily Mail for its cynical attempt to exploit a talented (and most likely mentally ill) artist’s reputation to further a socio-political agenda. It was prurient and amateurish. Pretty much the only good thing about it was the episode’s ultimate failure to do trash a justifiably strong artistic legacy because of a stunted premise, lame journalism (starting with an agenda/limited research), and the snippets of extraordinary music born, in part at least, from a human being’s inability to maintain worthwhile human relationships. The exploration of these relationships was valid, the one-sidedness of the exploration, cheap. The patriarchy notwithstanding, if this programme were pitched about an artist without reference to gender it would never have been made. I have no interest in listening to radio where I understand the end of the programme in the first two sentences of its beginning.

1st episode was very good, but starting from the premise there was little to no pirate radio prior to the 80's?! Good grief! Unlicensed broadcasting of music started (sometimes on a large scale) in the 40's! What about Radio Caroline in the 60's? That declaration got the episode off...Read full review »
