This thread is for when you are listening to the radio, or watching the tele, when something really good comes on. Share it in here so that others who are logged on at the time can listen as well.
I will delete messages from here when the programme is over.

A little dull I thought, don't think I'll have patience for a further five installments. |

More Joni on R4 yesterday evening 8pm. Rather good, lots of clips of her talking, from various eras.

Although I've not had a TV in my home for 40 odd years, I enjoyed r4 s hour long programme about Doctor Who last night. I'm old enough to just remember William Hartnell, and my older brother was a Doctor Who fan back then.

Nick Drake prom on Radio 3
I listened to this as a repeat last night. Was unsure for a short while then having adjusted to the new performances of what are for me very familiar songs, I enjoyed it. I found myself focusing on the words and even hearing the odd word I'd been mishearing for years. |

I listened on Sunday, too. Nice to hear some alternative versions of these songs. On the whole, very enjoyable.

From @bbctms on X/Twitter -
"Our 'View from the Boundary' guest at the Oval is founding member of Genesis and award-winning composer Tony Banks!"
It'll probably be available as a podcast later today.

Well, it was last night, but I didn't have the ability to pay at the time... Richard and Linda Thompson: A Little Night Music: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0022wbq From August 1981. Contributions from John Kirkpatrick, Dave Mattacks, Simon Nicol, Pat Donaldson. Worth a half hour I guess! Cheers Nick |

Various people talking about the Joan Baez song 'Diamonds and Rust', on radio 4 Soul Music programme .
I'm pleased and somewhat surprised I'm still able to like this song after some 40 years since first hearing it. Other people's accounts of its personal significance are somewhat superfluous, but heck, let people enthuse.

Great song. I just played it again after reading your post. Jules Yes isn't it. I first heard it on a LP of Joan's Greatest Hits in the early 80s and I still have that record. |
