Shame this thread had the wrong date in the title- anyone tuning in on the 11th will have the pleasure of hearing King Street Junior instead :0(

I wasn't over impressed by it - he wrote some lovely stuff in his diary, but I thought all the fancy additional stuff with the multitracking and the bass and the sampling was totally irrelevant. It's hiding Woody behind technology, something he never did himself. Would have been nice to hear some more of the diary, and not just repeated bits. A couple of paragraphs in half an hour is not a good deal.
