Starting to get a feel for these Friday nights in the summer. A change in broadcast times also requires a change in mind and mood. For instance, at this moment and the exact opposite of my Sunday show, I know that the Sun sets throughout my first hour with Twilight beginning near the end. As such, you can expect some “Sunset music” in the first hour of the program, such as the sublime set featuring the Sandwitches, Nicole Willis and Amy Winehouse, as long as I’m able to provide a soundtrack for it. Also featured in last Friday’s show is new music from Holly Golightly, Dungen, Ghostface Killah & Adrian Younge, Thundercat and Annabel (Lee), plus classic material from The Stooges (45th anniversary of their classic Fun House album was on 7/7), The United States Of America, Alice Coltrane and a taste of the “Deepest Digs Vol 6” mix that was posted on 7/11…if things go according to plan, we should have a special guest & performance coming up this week, but until then, enjoy the show!
