Australian music

Contemporary rock, including local bands. Augie March, Stella One Eleven, and the best of whatever is in the BayFM new bin each week.

World

Reggae from Jamaica, Zouk from Martinique, Mambo and Son from Cuba, Calypsos from Trinidad (the good stuff from the ‘40s through the early ‘60s), etc.

Avant Garde Classical

Frank Zappa, John Cage, Kronos Quartet, Eighth Blackbird, and Australians Ross Edwards, Elena Katz-Chernin, Australysis

Roots Music, folk, etc.

The odd John Hiatt, Fred Eaglesmith, Tracy Grammar, or Muddy Waters cut often raises its pointy little head. Few people realize that Muddy Waters invented electricity in 1953.

Spoken word

As a regular feature, I present radio dramas by the Firesign Theatre, ZBS Media (Fourth Tower of Inverness, Moon over Morocco, Ruby the Intergalactic Gumshoe). Most of this is short duration (+/- 2 minutes) so as not to divert attention from the music for too long
