Subject: RE: Folk/World Music on Rocket FM 87.8 From: Vic Smith Date: 14 Oct 18 - 01:56 PM ROCKET FM - WORLD MUSIC PROGRAMME 15/10/2018 7-9pm - PLAYLIST As usual, I will try to keep a theme to my programmes and tonight I will be trying to go through the alphabet and playing a track from countries starting with that letter. I have had to cheat a little but with a couple of letters, but not much. So I am trying to fit 26 pieces of music in two hours so I'd better get a move on. I'll be playing tracks in pairs and that will bring some strange contrasts as you will soon hear from my first choices from Albania and Brazil.

My interview guest tonight will be Valmai Goodyear and she is just the person for today's programme as she is the main mover and shaker for folk music events in the town. The whole of today's programme will be based on musical guests - past present and future - at the town's folk music headquarters, The Elephant and Castle pub which is the home of both the Lewes Saturday Night Folk Club and of the Lewes Folk Festival.

Subject: RE: Folk/World Music on Rocket FM 87.8 From: Vic Smith Date: 21 Oct 18 - 07:11 AM Rocket FM World Music Programme - Monday 22/10/18 - 7pm until 9pm - Playlist 87.FM in the Lewes & Ouse Valley areas. Otherwise streaming from http://www.rocketfm.org.uk/listen/ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ As usual. I have a theme for my programme and today it is this. I am playing two tracks back to back and each pairing will have at least one singer or musician who is on both tracks, often showing quite different sides of their musical careers - and we start with the West African country of Guinea Conakry, bordered on the coast at least by Guinea Bissau and Sierra Leone. Not many recordings from that country reach Europe which is a great pity because they have some fine musicians there Bambeya Jazz with Sekou Diabaté Sabou Sekou Diabaté Balake Muzsikás with Márta Sebestyén Oh, Morning Star Márta Sebestyén The Shores of Loch Brann/Hazafelé Cathal McConnell Long Expectant Comes at Last The Boys of The Lough with Cathal McConnell Farewell and Remember Me Muddy Waters Country Blues Muddy Waters Band Good Looking Woman Taj Mahal & Queen Bee Toumani & Sidiki Lampedusa Yann-Fañch Kemener Trio Dañs Fisel Skolvan with Yann-Fañch Kemener Tears Toumani & Sidiki Hamadoun Toure Kelétigui & Fassery Diabate Mankaïra Songhai with Kelétigui Diabaté & Kassé Mady Diabaté Mali Sadjo Kassé Mady Diabaté Mali Sadjo La Bottine Souriante with Andre Marchand La Tapinie/Le Reel Des Voyageurs Grey Larsen & Andre Marchand The Orange Tree [L'Oranger] The Jazz Epistles with Hugh Masekela Yardbird Suite Hugh Masekela Stimela Dewey Balfa/Marc Savoy/D.L.

Subject: RE: Folk/World Music on Rocket FM 87.8 From: GUEST,Modette Date: 21 Oct 18 - 01:36 PM Good stuff, Vic, but sadly as heavily male as last year. |
Subject: RE: Folk/World Music on Rocket FM 87.8 From: DaveRo Date: 21 Oct 18 - 03:27 PM I tuned in - as we used to say - 24hrs early - see stream URL up-thread. Some nice jazz. |
Subject: RE: Folk/World Music on Rocket FM 87.8 From: Vic Smith Date: 21 Oct 18 - 04:06 PM Fair comment on the programme to be broadcast on 22nd, Modette, I've just checked my playlist for the one on Thursday 25th and as far as lead singer/musician goes in that programme the balance is 11 male to 12 female. I ought to point out that around 80% of the CDs in my collection are therefore the ones that I can choose from - Rocket FM has a disc library totalling zero - are ones that come from unsolicited review copies either from record companies or magazines or the artists themselves. I would reckon that the overall numbers of lead performers in these albums are male. I wonder if there are figures for the gender ratio figures of albums released by major/independent/specialist labels and whether the proportion is different for each genre (Female hip-hoppers would not seem to be very plentiful - just an impression). I also wonder if the ratio has changed with the years. |

Elsewhere streaming from the internet at - http://www.rocketfm.org.uk/listen/ I have two interview guests tonight., from different generations. Cohen-Braithwaite Kilcoyne is the younger performer who is already making a big impression on the folk scene both as a soloist and as a member of the excellent young trio, Granny's Attic. He's in the first part of the programme and then after the news at 8 it will be a long-established singer and musician, Steve Turner, and both these performer have new albums out and that will be the focus of our conversations. In the rest of the programme, I will be featuring tracks from new folk albums, all released since Rocket was on the air last year.

Subject: RE: Folk/World Music on Rocket FM 87.8 From: Vic Smith Date: 28 Oct 18 - 10:57 AM RocketFM - World Music Programme 29th October 7-9 pm Playlist - 87.8FM in the Lewes and Ouse Valley area. Elsewhere streaming from the internet at - http://www.rocketfm.org.uk/listen/ I want to mark Black History Month with a programme featuring black artists and I have drawn on music from all over Africa, Latin America and the West Indies with the odd visit elsewhere. As well as black singers and musicians, I want to feature a substantial majority of female performers AND I only want to play one track from each country - that is apart from this first pairing of tracks which are both from the country which has the official name of the Republic of Guinea, but as there are three African countries with Guinea in their name, this is always called Guinea Conakry. And as there are eight women in Les Amazons de Guinée and three women in Les Soeurs Diabaté, that gets black women off to a good start in this programme. Les Amazones De Guinée (Guinea Conakry) Reine Nyapou Les Soeurs Diabaté (Guinea Conakry) Kalaro Boukman Eksperyans (Haiti) Kouman Sa Te Ye Culture Music Club (Zanzibar) Mpunga Rasha (Sudan) Leala Danyel Waro (Reunion Islands) Bat La Min Orchestra Baobab (Senegal) Pape N'Diaye Batata y Su Rumba Palenquera (Colombia) Ataolo Kandia Kouyaté (Mali) Sambayaya Batuko Tabanka (Cape Verde Islands) Qui Dia Nta Tchigala Ry-co Jazz (Democratic Republic of Congo) Marie Jose Vakoka (Madagascar) Era La Negra Graciana - Graciana Silva (Mexico) El Pájaro Cú Skeleton (South Africa) Kwa Xhosa Gnawa Collectif (Morocco) Bangoro Zainaba Ahmed (Comoros Islands) Yowa Thomas Mapfumo & The Blacks Unlimited (Zimbabwe) Hanzvadzi Guillermo Portabales (Cuba) Junto A Un Canaveral Vishwa Mohan Bhatt. (India) Mhari Mendhi Ro Sang Ifang Bondi (The Gambia) Karo [The Moon] Issa Juma and Super Wanyika Stars (Kenya) Barua I suppose the whole point of these programmes as far as I am concerned is to try to get people to open their ears and listen to more than what is easily available. There is a whole world of great music out there and all you have to do to find it is a few simple internet searches. It really is as simple as that. |

Elsewhere streaming from the internet at - http://www.rocketfm.org.uk/listen/ For the last of my six programmes on Rocket FM this season, my folk music programme. my interview guest is one of the scene's top songwriters, Pete Morton and I will be playing some tracks from his numerous CDs. Now, Pete was a pretty frequent guest performer at the folk club that I was involved in running in Lewes and that gave me the theme for today's programme I was involved in running folk clubs in Lewes continuously from 1968 until 2014 and so I thought I would choose some tracks from some of the artists that our club brought to Lewes.
