Radio Show: March 26th (My Last Jumbalaya)

Hey everyone,

This is what I played today on CJSF 90.1FM from 1-2pm PST.

A Horse and His Boy- Sidewalks
The Besnard Lake- Albatross
Reverie Sound Revue- An Anniversary Away
Kings of Convenience- You In Me
Sonic Youth- What We Know
Meaghan Smith- I Know
Hot Chip- Thieves in the Night
Spoon River- Buried in the Sun
The National- Bloodbuzz Ohio
The New Pornographers- Crash Years
Agnostic Mountain Gospel Choir- Go Back Home
Farnfarlo- Fire Escape

The show is available to download and listen to as an mp3 in two parts:
Part One/Part Two.

Correction: The album that the Agnostic Mountain Gospel Choir song came from was a compilation of live recordings from CJSW in Calgary, not CJSF in Burnaby. My apologies. Check out the record here.

This was my last live Jumbalaya show, as I'll be passing off the slot to a new volunteer who has been patiently waiting for his time to shine. Thanks to everyone who has listened on air or who have checked out the podcasts here on my Blogspot. I've really enjoyed my first few months on the radio, and I can't wait to get started on my new show, "Sad Sack Serenade" which will air Thursdays from 2-3pm PST. Be sure to tune in then. They'll be more information about that show coming soon.

I hope everyone enjoyed today's show, in particular the tributes to Mark Linkous and Alex Chilton. Sorry if I got too emotional, but I just think it's very sad to have lost those two talented musicians. Make sure if you haven't heard their stuff you go out and give it a listen. Keep their memories alive.

Be sure to tune in next Friday from 1-2pm for another Jumbalaya.
