Plastic Magic podcast #247 Oct 21st, 2012

Well, this show turned out to be very exciting! A while back ago me (Filthy Phil) and yer Uncle Butch issued a "mix tape" challenge asking for anyone to record some of their favorite songs and sent it on cassette tape to the KXUA studio (A665 Arkansas Union, Fayetteville, AR 72701) and I would play it over the air. A long time fan and frequent caller to the Plastic Magic program, named The Lizard, took us up on that challenge...stepped up the plate...swung the bat....hit the ball. I am not going to list everything that was played on the show this this time (I was in a bicycle crash monday and broke my arm....so I'm down to one arm), but half of it (60 minute tape) was sent in by the Lizard. It is very "lo-fi" and I played it just as it is except transfered to "mono". Another very exciting thing that happened on the show on this night, which was broadcast live BTW over KXUA 88.3FM in Fayetteville, AR and also over WBCQ "Area 51" 5.110MHz shortwave from Monticello, Maine was that I conducted my first ever live over the air telephone interview with The Lizard hisself!!!! enjoy this free podcast download: podcast #247 (the lizard tapes) and get ready for Halloween!

Plastic Magic podcast #244 September 23rd, 2012

Well, first of all, I say a few times during this episode that it is sept. 22nd. I was not trying to lie....just confused. If you can forgive me, we can now get on with the show. On this one I invited another old friend Richard Burnett who was somehow after all this time making his first appearance on my show. Our intention was to talk a little about the Bikes Blues and BBQ Fest that is making its way into our city this week and to play a little of Richard's new band and to talk about the line up for the event and play a little blues and southern rock music while we are at it. On this podcast you will be delighted by the sounds of: SON SEALS (1976), THE BUGS HENDERSON GROUP (1976), ERIC QUINCY TATE BAND (1975), WET WILLIE (1973), GOOSE CREEK SYMPHONY (1970), THE CHAMBERS BROTHERS (1967), JOHN LEE HOOKER (1969), THE NIGHTHAWKS (1976), BABY (1974), DAVID ALLAN COE (1977), THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY (1969) and much more! doWnloAD iT heaR: podcast #244

Hey everybody out there in radioland! Here we go again with another thrill seeking rock and roll adventure! On this show we kind of go down a bit of a different path than normal.
