Podwireless No Voices (England)

PLAYLINK: PODWIRELESS NO VOICES (ENGLAND)

(This playlink is to Mixcloud streaming:  you can also download the podcasts from Podomatic )

I’ve already done lockdown specials this year on European folk, early country blues and West African women but this one’s from right at home. Everybody who made the music I’m playing – from archive traditional greats to modern adventurers – lives/lived (though not necessarily was born or stayed) in England. And a fair bit – but by no means all – of the music has English traditional roots and influences. Anyway, I made the rules!

So… the first track, recorded way back in 1962, is quintessentially English country dance music. Except… it’s a polka, which didn’t originate from here, and it’s played on melodeon and hammered dulcimer, which came from somewhere else as well. And its title, Jenny Lind, is the name of a Swedish opera singer. But all those things have long since become naturalised, like lots of our culture – it’s a proper job mongrel.

This programme is called No Voices because – apart from the odd cackle – it’s entirely instrumental. I was involved in a little concert series in London in 2016 with that title and in spite of doubters saying nobody would want to sit through whole evenings of instrumental music, it was a great success, a sell out, and is likely to be repeated if concert halls ever re-open. Anyway, most of the musicians who appeared in it are included in this programme. Light bulb moment credit for that was due to David Agnew of Manchester Folk Festival who, earlier, mounted a double bill of Spiro and Leveret which turned out to be one of the most exhilarating evenings in the event.

Anyway, as the tune title says, “off she goes”!

Podwireless Archive May & June 2005

PLAYLINK: PODWIRELESS ARCHIVE MAY & JUNE 2005

(This playlink is to Mixcloud streaming:  you can also download the podcast from Podomatic )

For your mid-month lock-in delectation, I've put together two programmes first heard on the interweb in 2005 during Podwireless’s earlier incarnation as fRoots Radio. You'll notice how many more major 'world music' (as we still called it then) releases there still were 15 years ago, before that all fell off a cliff. The 2008 world economic recession gave the coup de grâce to what had already begun with travel restrictions after events in Manhattan in September 2001.
