22 Sep 08 - 06:14 AM (#2447109) Subject: Folkwaves From: danensis As its Monday, I thought I would remind people about Folkwaves - probably the best folk programme on local radio: Available on both "listen now" at seven o'clock this evening, or on "listen again": Folkwaves John |
22 Sep 08 - 06:40 AM (#2447127) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Rasener Agree with you. |
22 Sep 08 - 08:03 AM (#2447157) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Silver Slug I always make time to listen to Messrs. Simpson and Peat on a Monday night and enjoy the relatively broad range of music played on the show. Long may they continue to broadcast! |
22 Sep 08 - 08:26 AM (#2447162) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Abdul The Bul Bul Certainly on my list every week but I think I'd put Frank Hennessey at No 1. All a matter of taste of course. Al |
22 Sep 08 - 11:51 AM (#2447315) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: GUEST,Chris Murray I love 'Folkwaves'. Definitely better than any other folk music programme. |

22 Sep 08 - 03:13 PM (#2447508) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: SSlug at Home Well I am listening at the moment :-) stops the wife nagging me :-) Les Worrall I wish I was as lucky as you! Still, TV on Monday nights provides her with back-to-back soaps from 6.30 until 9.00, so I get to listen in relative peace. |
22 Sep 08 - 06:24 PM (#2447673) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: GUEST,Chris Murray Can't have been me - I never write in. And, no, we're not mates. |
23 Sep 08 - 02:12 AM (#2447885) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Rasener They saw your post about how you loved Folkwaves and so they mentioned you. |
23 Sep 08 - 08:57 AM (#2448070) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Acorn4 I think having the two presenters definitely gives it the edge - banter between Messrs Peat and Simpson is very entertaining and also with Nigel who does the gig guides. |
23 Sep 08 - 09:44 AM (#2448100) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Rasener Do the gig guides Nigel :-) |
23 Sep 08 - 02:23 PM (#2448342) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: GUEST,Chris Murray Did they? I'll listen again. |

18 Nov 08 - 08:07 AM (#2496595) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Mick Walker It was the Folkwaves 20th birthday bash on last nights show. A great live performance by Sam Sweeney and Hannah James from the excellent band Kerfuffle. Catch it on listen again |

08 Dec 08 - 07:31 PM (#2510285) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Sheila China I am another fan of folkwaves - as you say 2 presenters really make it good - BUT WHERE IS IT ?????????? For quite awhile nearly all English Folk Music seems to only be on the old listen again site - which was a hell of a job to find when I changed my computer this year. Now that has only 4 programmes on it for the last week or so!!!!!!!! Has anyone got any information about why English folk is being given the short straw for such a long time on the listen again sites? If there is another thread with information can you direct me For me to listen live in China, I would have to listen from 3am - 5am - not something I can do. Any news specifically about when we will be able to listen to folkwaves again? Just a tip - I have managed to find out that Free Sound Recorder can now record real time on a VISTA laptop. First time I have posted on Mudcat - so hello to many friends I haven't seen for a long time Sheila in Qingdao |
08 Dec 08 - 07:38 PM (#2510288) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Folkiedave Sheila - never one to miss an opportunity and if you can't get folk waves - I play similar music, have similar guests and you can get my playlist here. The thread will give you details of how to get the programme. |
08 Dec 08 - 07:44 PM (#2510292) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Lizzie Cornish 1 Hi there, Sheila, Just click here: BBC Radio Derby's FOLKWAVES ..then click the 'Listen Again' button, on the lower right hand side, and it will take you to the page where you simply click on the Folkwaves title, and voila. I've just tried it myself, and the programme is working fine. Hope this helps. |
08 Dec 08 - 07:50 PM (#2510295) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Acorn4 Actually, I'm having a few problems with the new BBC iplayer - I tried to listen again to Genevieve Tudor's Sunday programme using "listen again" and it wouldn't play on my PC which has got XP, but I could play it on my laptop which runs Vista. Not sure if any techies will have an explanation for this? |
08 Dec 08 - 09:36 PM (#2510323) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: Sheila China Hi Dave - thanks for the link to Thank goodness it's folk, I didn't know your programme. I am also thrilled to see you are broadcasting a number of the Sheffield carols - so I am going to download it. I used to try to get to the one at Outerbridge on the Friday evening it was a great experience. I would park outside and at the end of the evening go to sleep in my camper van. I am now downloading so many many thanks for not missing the opportunity Sheila |

My interviews are sometimes placed on the Sheffield Live website. http://www.sheffieldlive.org/ My playlist is also on my Facebook page which is here: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=133943690093 Let's get the music listened to!! |
02 Oct 12 - 03:21 AM (#3412894) Subject: RE: Folkwaves From: GUEST,UK Folk Music I don't know how many people realise that we have brought FOLKWAVES back on the internet via our website. UK Folk Music put the programme out monthly and the October edition was the sixth. There are two ways to get to listen: UK FOLK MUSIC or here: FOLKWAVES on Mixcloud Alan Morley - producer |
