RatholeRadio 66 – 27th Nov 2011
Posted on November 30, 2011
Rathole Radio 66 is upon us, just like winter seems to be. So wrap up warm, get the chicken soup on the go and tap your feet to my eclectic selection of tunes. There’s a live acoustic blues performance.
Apologies for messing up the mp3 download of the last show. It was cutting off halfway through.
- 00:00 – Brad Sucks – Bad Attraction – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Another track from Canadian CC artist Brad Sucks. I’ve played him many times before but not this song.
- 06:44 – Lee Maddeford – Le petit jardin (with Les Gauchers Orchestra) – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed– From FreeMusicArchive.org – Gorgeous, acoustic instrumental works by Lee Maddeford performed by Les Gauchers Orchestra and Les Gauchers Quintet. The pieces range from seemingly Hungarian gypsy dances that would warm the heart of Béla Bartók to pieces that would work for British society bands and on to lush works with string arrangements.
- 09:27 – Big Bill Broonzy – Baby Please Don’t Go – Public Domain Licensed – A classic track by a legendary blues singer Big Bill Broonzy. If you don’t know about him check out the information on Wikipedia.
- 18:27 – Stereo Electric Mistress – Famous On Facebook – Licence Unknown – I met Clare the band’s manager at Barcamp Liverpool via Graham Holland. She got me a copy of this track via Tom one of the members. To be honest I really wasn’t sure what to make of this at first. It quickly grew on me though and by the end of that first listen I already liked it. That’s a good sign 🙂
- 22:12 – Juanitos – Super Exotic 60’s Beat – CC BY Licensed – Another one I heard on CCHits and liked. Loving the retro sound, suits the song title.
- 27:42 – Hank Penny – Rabbits Don’t Ever Get Married – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A cracking bit of country old style country music with humour I thought. This is from the Bloodshot Revival collection on FreeMusicArchive.org. I have to give a thanks to Heeed for sending it my way and he heard it via Dave and Caroline on The Bugcast. Are you confused yet?
- 30:22 – Plushgoolash – Big Gay Waterfight – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Can’t tell you much about this artist or track other than the title caught my eye. It’s currently near the top of the chart on FreeMusicArchive.org.
- 36:09 – Mamma Reggae – Ragga – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A nice bit of reggae I came across on Jamendo. Not much info on there but it looks like they’re Argentinian so I assume they’re singing in Spanish. Light up a fat one and enjoy!
- 39:24 – Broke For Free – Night Owl – CC BY Licensed – Another track I found on the FreeMusicArchive.org chart. An art student from Santa Cruz Californina by the name of Tom Cascino. You can buy his music from Bandcamp.
45:24 – LIVE TRACK – An old blues classic, “Sweet Home Chicago”. Hope you enjoy it.
- 50:14 – Pete Vyler – Backstreet Emperor – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A very cool punk track I came across on Jamendo which is actually by a French artist. There’s a full album so I look forward to hearing more.
- 57:31 – Patrick Lee – Quittin’ Time – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Another one from Bad Panda Records, one of my favourite netlabels. I loved this tune when I heard it on a recent CCHits weekly roundup.

Great tune. Check out Tab Benoit’s website and his new album Medicine.
- 06:50 – Lejo Harmeson & Essence – Complicated Man – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Heard this on the CCHits weekly review show and liked it. Got to the site, listen to the shows and vote, we need people to participate!
- 10:50 – Regra 4 – Samba Groove, a volta do homem pro mato – CC BY-SA Licensed – One I found randomly while surfing Jamendo.
- 15:41 – Partition 36 – The Optic Nerve – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I played a track called “I Love Penguins” by this artist some time ago and this is a great follow up. Lovely slice of industrial sounding electro. Thanks to GamerChick02 for the tip.
- 21:38 – Derelict Earth – The Darkest Serenity – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A French metal band (from Grenoble), you don’t see many of those. They’ve obviously been listening to some early Metallica I think, and that’s no bad thing.
- 30:22 – Chamber Music Society Of Lincoln Center – Pachelbel’s Canon In D – License Unknown – Kindly sent to me by Don_S who asked why I don’t play much classical music. As he guessed it’s often the length of the pieces and it’s tough to fit them in. I’m a fan though. (Lincoln Center blurb)
- 36:46 – Teddy Goldstein & The Goldsteins – New York City – License Unknown – Heard this on AMPed 280 and it was submitted by Peter Clitheroe of Suffolk & Cool. This reminded me of The Eagles in the vocal style and it’s a nice tune. I bought it off CD Baby.
- 43:14 – LIVE TUNE – Medicine Man by Dan Lynch – A tune I wrote some years ago and I have a feeling I might have played it live on the show before. I only realised after I’d done it. Well never mind, people seemed to enjoy it anyway. I’m hoping to soon record an album of tunes like this that have gotten away over the years.
- 48:49 – ‘Til Dusk – One By One – License Unknown – Emailed to me by Chris from the band. They’re based in Southampton in the UK. This track is taken from their debut album Cold Lust which is released May 16th and you can find out more at www.tildusk.co.uk
Guest next time! Wayne Mayers AKA Fit & The Conniptions.
- 57:59 – Dual Core – Magnificent Seven (feat Nerdcore) – All Rights Reserved- A big thanks to Mark Horsley for emailing this track to me. I’ve heard Dual Core a few times but not this track. It’s from the 2009 album Next Level which you can get on Bandcamp and other places and it features almost everyone in Nerdcore it seems. Beefy, MC Frontalot and more.
