Show 96 - Yorksrvc's picks

[Rick and Roll]

Remember that over the hill, silly, goofball from Baltimore? No, not me, the other guy. Yeah, Rob Grant. Him. He's got some interesting music he dabbles in, and I thought I'd play a few of his songs, along with some great music he's turned me on to.

World Merge - Rob Grant

Rob's not really comfortable with the version, it's unfinished (like his myspace name Aged WIP...). But I think it sounds like Floyd's "One of these Days" and it sounds cool enough.

Pallas - The Dreams of Men

The Bringer of Dreams
Warriors
Gostdancers
Too Close To the Sun
Messiah
Northern Star
Mr. Wolfe
Invincible
The Last Angel

All 73:08 of it. I've seen them at Rosfest and Nearfest, but never bought any of their records. But Rob ordered me to listen to this one, and I have to say I'm quite taken by this 2005 release. They played about 7 of these songs at Rosfest last year. Love the strong Rickenbacker bass.

Rob Grant - Conan and the Sharc

Heavily guitared tribute to our friend Sharcnorris. A pair of jokers, I'd say. Crunchy song.

Believe - Hope To See Another Day

From 2004, this is Mirek Gil's band (the guitarist from Satellite). Heavy in spots, sometimes reminiscent of STP, but overall quite prog, with a newer feel (released 2004). Another York recommendation, I like it a lot, and I think a lot of you will also.

What Is Love
Needles In My Brain
Liar
Pain
Seven Days
Coming Down
Don't Tell Me
Hope To See Another Day

Tantalus - Footprints

A fun song recommended...

Rob Grant - New Moon

This one is strange....according to Rob, the barely audible vocal references ric b and refers to me as "Red headed friend rick"....glad I'm a good sport. I was going to play his first mix, but has since re-recorded it with the talented Andyyyyy Kubicki. I will try to play that version. Speaking of which, I need to compile some of his songs, he's quite a musician.

Odyssice

In Your Eyes
Scream
Losing Her

A Dutch band, here's three instrumentals that Rob turned me on to. Some good music.

Hope you enjoy the show, a little something different for you this time!

Conan and the Sharc, for little old me?...Rob has been great featuring some of my Artwork as his song Pictures. He has flourished with his new found Recording and I'm very proud to be associated with Him. Check out his Tunes...http://www.myspace.com/agedwip

[Rick and Roll]

On the quickest of whims, I've decided to attend ProgDay, so I'll be absent this weekend. York, I haven't received the new New Moon version, so unless I get it tomrrow, I'll just play the old one. (By the way, I'm spoting my T-shirt you gave me).

I'll not have internet access from Sat-Mon afternoon, so if anyone's around the station Sun PM I'd appreciate it if you'd see if the show plays. 99% of the time if the show plays OK Sun PM, it will play ok Monday.

Catch you all soon!
