THE RADIO SHOW

August 2008

I am starting to look forward to returning to the radio on Sunday, September 14th. That night, I expect to air the world radio premiere of songs and tunes from Beppe Gambetta's new album, Rendez-Vous, in which the great Italian musician performs duets with wonderful artists he has met from around the world. Throughout the fall, we'll also hear from many of the other wonderful new albums to be released or released in recent months mixed in with many older ones.

For some reason, songs about conflicts between environmental protection, development and farming have been on my mind of late and will probably pop up from time to time. Finally, songs about electoral politics are also likely to make increasingly frequent appearances building to an entire pre-Election-eve show on Sunday November 2nd. And in case that's not enough to look forward to, WPRB's 2nd annual listener membership drive will also descend upon us.

Music You Can’t Hear On The Radio is a radio show begun in February 1974 by John Weingart to weave folk music, string band music, bluegrass blues, humor, the Grateful Dead and occasional news clippings and readings into a whole that is, as often as possible, bigger than the sum of its parts. The program usually includes a mix of CDs and LPs each often linked to the ones that came before and follow in a way intended to evoke interest, amusement, surprise, profound educational experiences or bewilderment. The opening song and other parts of the program may refer to particularly current news or seasonal events.

Music You Can’t Hear On The Radio will be on the air live this Sunday from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. on WPRB which broadcasts to a 45-mile radius from Princeton, New Jersey, at 103.3 FM and to the world at WPRB.com.

Every Sunday evening, usually between 8:45 and 9:15 p.m., Music You Can’t Hear On The Radio includes a selected listing of concerts in the central New Jersey, Bucks County and Philadelphia area. This list and more is available at the Concert Calendar page. Also, please e-mail any concert information you would like included in the on-air listing.

Comments from listeners are encouraged and welcomed. Listeners with a quick question or comment may call WPRB during the show at 609-258-1033 but the DJ is often too busy and distracted to talk or listen coherently. E-mail comments will be read and replied to after the show.
