Radio Spiral Scratch takes a look at the 'softer' side of the B-section. Of course, 'Easy Listening' is a bit of a misnomer - most of what you hear here has its 'edge' - the dangerous haze of Bongwater and Carlangas, the politics of Billy Bragg
Radio Spiral Scratch does take a bit of pride in presenting some of the more... out of the way... bands. In fact, due to my Community Radio Ideals, I try to avoid 'Classic Rock'... but we have hit that spot in the collection that hosts 2 of my
Radio Spiral Scratch rolls through the Early-'B' section of the collection, and, as we are coming down from the Bevis Frond overdose of episode 15, we're locked into the acid rock, some early-60's material, and a little jazz-rock. Included in t
Radio Spiral Scratch is back on the show-long feature trail! This time the episode balloons to over two hours, mostly by virtue of the fact that the final track is 42 minutes long... but time is no barrier where the Bevis Frond is concerned! Fo
Radio Spiral Scratch gets harsh. Starting out with some post-punk in a late-80's kinda way, then lay into a set of Big Black - a band that is still the gold standard for bad-tempered abrasive racket... and I love it so. Towards the end we start
Back to Radio Spiral Scratch's miscellany from the early 'B's, focusing mostly on the influence that jazz had on rock... especially when mixed with amplified guitars. We have some solo work from Peter Bardens (pre-Camel) and Ginger Baker (post-
Here's another Radio Spiral Scratch's feature (yes, it's long - I might have split it into a 2-part-er... but live and learn, eh?): a look at Brian Auger's work from 1967-1976, from the Trinity to Oblivion Express. His unique fusion of jazz, so
It's time for Radio Spiral Scratch's Time to ROCK, so this episode deals with ROCK - there's no punk, no jazz, no prog or krautrock experimental excesses. Yes, there is some country-ish rock from Ottawa's Black Boot Trio, and Arbouretum, the dr
This time Radio Spiral Scratch digs deep into my punk rock past - I was a dyed-in-the-wool punk rocker from the mid-80's to the early-00's.. and still love it, would never ask it to be turned off and always love seeing it live. There is a fair
Another Radio Spiral Scratch 'Twofer', in a manner of speaking - last episode, we looked at 2 new bands, in fairly equal quantities... this time it's less-balanced. First, we're going back into the early-70's for one band that was a great influ
This is a Radio Spiral Scratch 'Twofer', where we look at the works of only two bands. The concept here has worked out to these three functional properties: "Power Trio"; "Instrumental"; "From Paris, Île-de-France" . The First, AutorYno - are t
This is Radio Spiral Scratch's 'Prog in the A-Section' - Classic guitar histrionics (Jan Akkerman), obscurities (Älgarnas Trädgård), the art-y side (Art Bears), jazz-oriented 70's Quebecois Prog (Aquarelle) and more! Challenging, yes, but also
Radio Spiral Scratch veers off into jazz territory - I haven't gone deeply into the jazz rabbit-hole, but I have developed a taste for the more eclectic/electric side, as well as keeping track of some Ottawa Jazz (Atlantis Jazz Ensemble) and de
Radio Spiral Scratch continues in the vein of Episode 4 with some of the more 'challenging' musics, and introduces something special: the first 'Episode-length Feature'. Episode 5 will deal with the music of Chile's Akineton Retard. They began
Radio Spiral Scratch moves from the more accessible 'rock' of the previous 3 episodes to something a bit more challenging - Krautrock, Rock In Opposition, and Psychedelic Dub. Lose yourself in the sound, expand your headband!Ahora Mazda - S/T
Radio Spiral Scratch gets back to the hour-long format after the almost-2-hour monster that was Episode 2. Episode 3 rolls through a short list of tracks of 70's acid rock, hard rock and old-school Heavy Metal in search of enlightenment.Allma
Radio Spiral Scratch  starts out hard rocking material and then we move to something lower-key - a look at a few tracks from the Angels of Light, Michael Gira's project between iterations of the Swans.Jason Anderson - Private release (2019) -
