Not too much to say here. Mostly new material today. It was nice to be able to play some Wayne Shorter ("Playground" from 1967's Schizophrenia); haven't done that in a while.
The next Breaking The Tethers show will be on Monday, June 4, usual time (10-11 am MT), usual place (90.9 FM, cjsw.com). But I won't be there! I'm off the air that day and the following week, Monday, June 11. John Reid will more than ably fill in on BTT next week (and Adam Mbowe will do the job on June 11). Please join John for a great show! I'll return on Monday, June 18.
Thanks!

May 24, 2018 (Alternative To What?)
http://cjsw.com/program/alternative-to-what/episode/20180524
Not Breaking The Tethers but a showfill for Alternative To What? (ATW?), Kerry Clarke's long-running CJSW program. Kerry was away this week and kindly let me handle the reins of ATW? for this week (many thanks, Kerry!). I always enjoy hosting her show and this one was no different. As I usually do for ATW?, I took a two hour trip all over that musical map. Highlights: an Indian lean to a fair amount of the music; freak folk; avant-garde big band; "Puking in the heather"; and much more!
I'll be back behind the board next Monday, May 28, 10-11 am MT, 90.9 FM, www.cjsw.com, for the next edition of my regular show, Breaking The Tethers. Please tune in with me then!

The usual mix of old and new and a variety of styles this week. I definitely dug everything played. Hope you did, too! Next week's show will be very much along the same lines.
On the subject of next week's show, it'll be Monday, May 28, 10-11 am MT, 90.9 FM, www,cjsw.com... the usual time and place!
I should also note that I'll be away a few Mondays over the next several weeks. Here's when I'll be gone along with the guest hosts for Breaking The Tethers those days:
June 4: John Reid
June 11: Adam Mbowe
July 2: Linda Cunningham
Many thanks in advance to John, Adam, and Linda!
One more "I should also note": I will be guest-hosting Alternative To What? this Thursday, May 24, 4-6 pm MT, same radio station. The regular host, Kerry Clarke, is away so I'll be filling her shoes (only a bit!) this week. Should be fun; I'll be playing stuff from all over the musical map.
Thanks!

A "regular" kind of show, with new and old material and a fairly wide variety styles. That being said, there was a bit of lean toward guitar, with that instrument appearing prominently in half or so of the tracks. Such is the way it goes sometimes.
Fave track this week: "Max's tune" by the Jeff Beck Group, off their 1971 record, Rough and ready. It's a piece of music that I've always enjoyed, from a record that I find myself getting pulled into more and more.
I should note that, on the CJSW site for this show (see above), the first two songs on the tracklist are in the wrong order. "Syntax error" should be first and "More chicken" second. I thought I had these right when I entered them into the system but I must have accidentally flipped them.
The next Breaking The Tethers episode will be next week, Monday, May 21, 10-11 am MT on radio station CJSW, 90.9 FM or www.cjsw.com

So, after last week's program, I suggested that this week's show should have a lean to the avant side of things (the April 30 show had a lean to the straight-ahead, more or less). For the most part, I think I succeeded in that. I think I especially hit the mark with the 23+ minute "Septober energy, part" from the Septober energy by the 50+ member jazz/prog/etc band Centipedge, released in 1971. And some folks actually liked the track 😃, judging by people who came by the booth door and called.
The next show will be at the usual place and time, CJSW, 90.9 FM, www.cjsw.com, Monday, May 14, 10-11 am MT. Please tune in!
