PODCAST 151 FROM DONSPODRADIO/CKW
June 09, 2009 08:40 PM PDT
To all my Podcast Listeners and Site Visitors: Here comes Podcast 151 and another chance for me to spin some of the best tunes I have in the archives - tunes you may not hear on commercial radio but music that was and maybe still is a part of our musical heritage. I would like to thank my neighbour, who fired up his pressure washer just as I started this week's show - this time it was next door (no Brent, not you!) and not across the street, like a few weeks ago. So, I closed all the windows, shut the curtains, suffered the heat of the room and got the job done! I think I managed to eliminate the background noise. If you are wondering where Rollie has gone, he is on a golf course somewhere - hockey season is all but over and he is on an extended vacation. And speaking of hockey, did anyone think that Pittsburgh would force a 7th and final game in this year's Stanley Cup Final? I am sure Friday's game in Detroit will be a barn burner! Al Murphy is still very much here, and his Retrospective commentary is heard on the 20's - this week's commentary is "must listen to" material! Michael Godin is also still on board with three minutes of the latest in Rock and Roll news at the bottom of the hour. A friend of mine asked for a tune by Keith Hampshire - a tune I had never heard before. Listen around the 12 minute mark for this new oldie (new to me!). Oh, and some great news! Next week, I will be featuring the first of two podcasts - THE BRITISH INVASION! Art Kollee, a faithful listener, was the one who spawned the idea, and of course, when a listener talks, we listen! So, for Art, and for the rest of you too, some great tunes and hopefully, some wonderful musical memories as well. To everyone who has made this podcast successful, I huge thank-you! I never thought I would be still going strong and growing weekly. Until next week, when we wrap ourselves in the Union Jack, thanks for listening and visiting the web sites. Stay cool!

Podcast SummaryOnce each week, Big Daddy Donald Roberts along with that Little Irishman Al Murphy bring you a full hour of great GOLDEN OLDIES from www.donspodradio.com. Listen to some of the greatest tunes ever recorded, every week! Al Murphy visits on the 20's with RETROSPECTIVE - a 20/20 look back on issues of interest to Al, and hopefully you as well.
Big Daddy fills in all the gaps with light banter and awesome music.
About DonaldBig Daddy Donald Roberts: I am a retired print plant manager, who has a love of music and radio - in 1967 I went to broadcasting school, and earned my diploma. Then real life kicked in, and I found a job at a printing company, where I stayed for the next 38 years. I have always had some kind of home studio, and it is there where donspodradio was born. Now I can do what I love, and do it for people who also love the music and listen to the program each week. Al Murphy is also a retiree from the same company - I was in Manufacturing and he in Human Resources! Al resides in Fergus, Ontario, which is a little bit west of Toronto - I on the other hand, live in Coquitlam, British Columbia, a bedroom community of Vancouver. When I started the donspodradio websites back in February, 2006, Al was the very first visitor - it wasn't long before he had recorded some promos for the station, and as they say, the rest is history. Now, every week Al drops by on the 20's with RETROSPECTIVE - his look back at issues of interest to him, and I hope, you as well. Every once in a while, Al either co-hosts a program, or takes over entirely - and his love of the music and information of the times shows through! It takes a bit of engineering to stretch the string tight between the two tin can microphones that link our studios, but it is well worth the effort as I am sure you will agree. So, please join us weekly, as we rock to the sounds of GREAT OLDIES - 65 minutes each week right here! Over THREE years in podcasting, and still going strong! We hope you enjoy the weekly program and will take the time to email us at dpr.adio@hotmail.com or through this service provider. Rock on. The Real Big Daddy, Donald Roberts, and the Little Irishman, Al Murphy.
