Joel Martin Is The Roswell Incident

Joel has been a part of Radio Memphis for a year. He came on board as the station announcer and the announcer of From Radioland. He's a great guy with a great voice.

In this episode, he'll tell you some funny stories from his early days in the radio business where small market broadcasting tends to yield some hilarious incidents. Also, since he's from Roswell, New Mexico, we had to talk about the obvious topic when one hails from the UFO crash site.

Musical guests on this episode are The Southern Heavyweight Champions of Rock and Roll - The Fast Mothers.

It's always a good time in Radioland when there are great people in the studio. A few weeks ago, during an episode of Booze & Blues we were pleased to have in the studio Donna Dahl and Dave Lambert. They are perform as Brother Sun Sister Moon. They are from St. Paul, Minnesota. They were in Memphis for the International Blues Challenge.

We spent a great deal of time talking about the music business and their perspective of it from Minnesota. They also did some playing that night on the air. However, in the interest of time, we edited out the performances. BUT, we did include a cut from their current CD.

Enjoy!

An Evening with the Grammy Nominated Cedric Burnside

I have been a fan of the Burnside family of musicians starting with their patriarch, R.L. Burnside. For many years, his grandson played drums with him on the road and in the studio. Now, Cedric has struck out on his own and put together an album that has managed to get a nod from the Grammy people for best blues album.

Jeff and I had Cedric in the studio as a guest on the Booze & Blues show and it was such a good time, we wanted to add this conversation into the collection of shows From Radioland. Enjoy!
