Another week has gone by and I am here with another show. The rain has finally come back back to Georgia. Not a huge amount but enough to make me feel a little more homesick. But there is plenty of good music on today's show including two from my good friend Judith Owen. She is about to head out on tour with Richard Thompson and I will get you dates for that as soon as I have them.  In the meantime enjoy the show and please keep sending your emails and comments and of course vote for your favorite song on the poll.

Wow, it was touch and go getting the show to you this week. I had it all recorded on Wednesday but even while I was recording I didnt have internet access to upload to file. But thanks to a very cool man named Frank who works for Comcast, which is the American company who provides my house with my favourite TV shows and my internet access, you are listening to the show. Yesterday some very smart person working on the landscaping of the house next door cut through the very cable which provides me with those modern luzuries. So those of you who like my show have Frank to thank for me being on the air and those who dont like the show wouldnt have noticed if I had called it in and sang Danny Boy badly for the entire hour. So thanks Frank. Let's hope I don't need to bug you again for a long time.

Don't forget the schedule for this week's show. 

Thursday at 6pm GMT or 1pm EST with the repeat on Sunday at 2pm GMT or 9am Eastern
