Does anyone know of any radio stations who use realaudio or something like it so you can listen over the internet (aka at work) and are seriously Folk/Celtic/Blues oriented? Thanking you in advance-Oh yes, the URL to go to would be a great help.

Have any of you heard Live Ireland.com, especially the Celtic Stream show with David Lattimer? It's a real audio pre-recorded 'test program'. It's brilliant! Give it a listen and be sure to email Live Ireland to let them know that you want to keep it on the programming. Here's the URL:

too simple to forget, eh? Let me know what you think.

I just exchanged a few personal notes with Mike Regenstreif and we agreed that Paul Stamler's show from St. Louis is one of the very best. Strongly tradition oriented, but not slavish. Paul is the fellow who put together Art Thieme's CD as a labor of love. Here's a copy of a note I got from Paul tonight:

"Yes, we're back up. CLICK HERE FOR KDHX

"In addition to my program (noon-2pm Sundays, central time) there are others that might be interesting to Mudcat folks, including "Ireland in America" (Mondays, 9am-noon); "Music from the Hills" (Eastern Europe, great show, 11:30am-1pm Fridays, I think); "Family Reunion" (right after me on Sundays, 2-3pm) and a whole raft of blues shows, mostly electric but some country blues too. Oh, and check out "Color Radio", a great eclectic show by Tom Hall, but I don't remember what time it's on; the schedule's on the website. "Musiques des Bayou" (Cajun-Zydeco) is also good."

Peace,
Paul

Bob Blackman's excellent show from Lansing, Michigan, is also being done in RealAudio, but I don't have the address. Perhaps someone else can supply it. If not, I'll hunt it up and post it.

Rich Warren is now the host of "The Midnight Special" from WFMT in Chicago, a long running and very popular mix of folk and other genres. It's also on the 'net somewhere.

Hope this helps you maintain your sanity.

The RealAudio archive of Bob Blackman's "The Folk Tradition" show can be found at WKAR's web site

Rich Warren's Midnight Special from WFMT is here.

I'd be happy if you wished to join me on Sundays 5:30 to 6:30 (British Summer Time) and then, after that, you could listen to Bobby Bob speaking in tongues!

Does anyone know if Ed Denson's show out in California is available? His playlists are often fantastic.

Sandy,

ED Denson's show is on KMUD on Saturday mornings (Pacific time). I just checked their web site and they are in RealAudio.

The blue clicky thing above is incorrect.

It should be KMUD

Sandy Paton mentioned Bob Blackman's Folk Tradition show in a post above. I thought I'd refresh this thread which has a lot of good information about webcast folk music, as well as mention that Bob's show this evening is his a cappella harmony show, which he does once or twice a year. Can't tell you what he might play - could be music from anywhere in the world, but there's usually a healthy selection from England/Ireland/Scotland and America, including some shape note singing.

WKAR webcasts its entire FM schedule. Although it doesn't have as big a folk lineup as some of the stations mentioned in this thread, they carry the following: (all times are EST, same as Mudcat time)

A Prairie Home Companion, Saturday 6:00-8:00pm
American Routes, Saturday 8:00-10:00pm

The Folk Tradition, Sunday 6:00-7:00pm
The Folk Sampler, Sunday 7:00-8:00pm
The Thistle and the Shamrock, Sunday 8:00-9:00pm
Celtic Connection, Sunday 9:00-10:00pm


Although all the above other than The Folk Tradition are nationally syndicated, I mention them in case the times they're scheduled on WKAR might fit your schedule better than a another local or webcast version. Also, The Folk Tradition is archived (Sunday's show is usually available the following Monday noon) for a week, so if Sunday isn't convenient, you can catch it at another time during the week.

The link to The Folk Tradition is here: Click for The Folk Tradition

If you click on the 'FM Webcast' button at the top of the page, you'll be connected to WKAR's currently scheduled programming. If you click on the 'Recent Program' button to the right of the show description, you'll be connected to the archived program.

Being really partial to a-cappella, I must give a big thank-you. I'm listening as I type.

Another link that I use a lot that is not mentioned above or at the Online Folk Music page refereced is Folk Programs at Live365.com. There area bunch of stations there I have not tried, I really like Appalachian Old Time Throwdown

Try www.Jayandmolly.com ( Jay Unger of Ashokan Farewell fame and Molly Mason). They do a monthly radio show which is archived and stored under www.dancingontheair.com. A wonderful mix of old time and celtic, well worth a listen.
