I'm sad that we're getting to the point that all radio programs are about <a href="http://www.actionappliancerepair.ca" rel="nofollow">appliance repair</a> or something.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06633685790067481684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-37762810127562793682011-10-15T06:53:07.722-04:002011-10-15T06:53:07.722-04:00i used to listen to this show in the mid 80's....i used to listen to this show in the mid 80's. it was awesome! it was broadcast over a windsor channel that played classical music all day. they broke for news for half an hour, then went into four of unheard of and some of the most interesting music i have ever heard. the coolest part of it was that you could listen to it in the quiet of the early morning hours. i wish this show was still around. i wish they would repeat it. i wish i knew the names of the bands and songs. i wish i had the one cassette tape that i had recorded over two or three nights (my tape player finally ate it). i wish i could find the playlists from those early broadcasts. i miss this show!! badly!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-20254124446747670122010-03-20T05:10:49.824-04:002010-03-20T05:10:49.824-04:00From what I understand, all funding went into Geor...From what I understand, all funding went into George Stropoloplis' contract agreement. This all happened as the hipster facade called the HOUR started. <br /><br />I rather enjoyed and was also stimulated by many programming adventures on BNW's from 1986-2001. I started to lose interest in Patti programming late by the late 90's.<br />Although I loved Patti's voice and obvious collaboration with Ninja Tune, I dug on Brent's style best. Probably because his radio show was the first for these ears to hear a full Hour spotlight on Public Enemy. Anyways, great writeup! thanks for sharing the link. It will be interesting to hear the last show. I will be linking some old BNW shows on my blog in the near future also, from the late 80's I too have stored on magnetic tape media. freqazoidiac.blogspot.comfreQazoidiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608531474030069269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-84518410023784702562008-11-03T09:56:00.000-05:002008-11-03T09:56:00.000-05:00"I distinctly remember the feeling I had the ..."I distinctly remember the feeling I had the first time I recognized something they played before they announced it...." <BR/><BR/>I know exactly what you mean! It's a great feeling. My partner of 5 years knows me as a classic rock music fan. She was somewhat surprised the first time I went out to a Death Metal gig but she was totally dumbfounded when she heard me discussing in depth Afrika Bambaata & Soulsonic Force, Parliament, Funkadelic, George Clinton & The Mothership Connection. <BR/><BR/>"You understand what they're talking about?"<BR/><BR/>I do not go out of my way to be controversial in my taste but I don't like limiting myself to any particular genre. I prefer to hear music that isn't played ever half an hour on Radio XYZ. I enjoy hearing music I haven't heard before and most of all, I love that feeling when you hear something for the first time and feel the hair prickle on the back of your neck.Mickey P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09465481718047448681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-63809724074430403472007-09-05T14:13:00.000-04:002007-09-05T14:13:00.000-04:00Nice post! thanks....Nice post! thanks....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-90477189738048206372007-02-01T18:36:00.000-05:002007-02-01T18:36:00.000-05:00Nice, man.

You mentioned Brent's last night on the show, and I never had a chance to listen to that. It would be awesome if you can dig that up for us. Despite the obviously crappy mood of the place while you worked there, I want to give you, Patti and everybody big ups for holding everything together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-48992635068834762662007-01-25T13:38:00.000-05:002007-01-25T13:38:00.000-05:00can we put cataloguing the cassettes into a pre-nu...can we put cataloguing the cassettes into a pre-nup?<br />xxcleverlazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13036372719583731684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-20262073142546623652007-01-25T12:18:00.000-05:002007-01-25T12:18:00.000-05:00i never throw out any tapes, as my family and room...i never throw out any tapes, as my family and roommates can tell you. finding any of them and cataloguing them (never mind uploading them) is another story.mmmbarclayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600641576471505917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18650891.post-2909776741871074872007-01-25T10:09:00.000-05:002007-01-25T10:09:00.000-05:00What a heartfelt tribute, michael.
