RatholeRadio 74 – 18th Mar 2012
Posted on March 20, 2012
Another Rathole Radio is upon and this one is a bumper edition. 71mins to be precise. I must have felt more chatty or something, hard to see how that’s possible. This was broadcast on Mother’s Day here in the UK but I didn’t have a special song for that. Instead I performed a folk song to celebrate St Patrick’s Day on Saturday. I hope you enjoy the show.
- 00:00 – Freeky Cleen & Dickey F – GONE TRAIN BLUES – CC BY-SA Licensed – 2 artists I’ve played separately before but now they’ve joined forces to create this great slice of blues rock. You don’t wanna miss it. There’s a whole album available on Jamendo.
- 06:40 – Tracing Arcs – Babydoll (just chillin’ mix) – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A great track that put me in mind of Portishead a bit at times. No bad thing.
- 12:47 – Farewell Republic – Wake – Licensed Unknown – Heard this via fellow North West podcaster Alan Carr and his show Darkhorse Radio.
- 22:32 – Phil Lee – 25 Mexicans – License Unknown – Another one I heard via Alan Carr when he submitted it for AMPed some time ago. I’ve been keeping it in my pocket. What an artist Phil Lee is and what a song.
- 26:25 – Silent Strike – Infinit – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – This one I heard via CCHits.
- Rathole Gig News – 4 acts in the line up now: The Corinthians, P’Chenga, Thom Morecroft and of course 20lb Sounds.
- 36:26 – EGOMOTEL – LAST NIGHT –CC BY-NC-SA Licensed
- 40:17 – Teresa James & The Rhythm Tramps – Whet My Appetite – License Unknown – This is a track I heard on The Roadhouse podcast. Read her bio here – http://www.teresajames.com/bio-v2.htm
- 49:06 – LIVE TRACK – A bit of folk for St Patrick’s Day, “Dirty Old Town” by Ewan MacColl. I heard The Dublinersversion many times while growing up. My Dad is a big fan.
- 55:16 – Bill Borman – No Man Is An Island – CC BY-NC Licensed – Another track from CCHits. At first I wasn’t sure what to make of it but it quickly grew on me. A powerful song and a great performance full of dynamics and feeling. Enjoy!
- 68:15 – Model Society – Horizons – License Unknown – Another poached AMPed submission. This time fro Rowley at The DarkCompass Podcast. These guys were played by Steve Lamaq on 6 Music apparently too, I can see why.

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.
