Nick Heyward - Blue Hat For A Blue Day

Not what I was going to blog about at all (that will have to wait now), but I got taken unawares by a clip from this track cropping up as a very, very easy question on PopMaster this morning (even poor old Ken sounded taken aback).

Pity the very lovely Mr Heyward has not allowed embedding, however, here's the link.

Walker Brothers - No regrets

Played on Ken Bruce this morning. Not particularly rare or shocking, I know, but worthy of mention when it crops up.

My Annual Post

I have been reliably informed that it has been almost a year since I posted anything on here. For the record I've been kind of busy and not really had chance to listen to the radio as much as I would like to, so therefore less listening = less synhotr.

I have been eagerly awaiting my anniversary post and hoping for a spectacular song to mark my comeback. I finally heard it Monday on Radcliffe and Maconie and have been procrastinating over writing the blog ever since. I heard the song again this afternoon. A prod if ever there was one, to get off my backside and write.

So here it is, "King of the Road" Roger Miller. I remember hearing it all the time as a kid on the radio and was convinced he was singing "tailors for sailorettes". The mind boggles. People sewing uniforms for WReNS?

Anyway here's a link to the song.

Enjoy!
