Andy Kershaw back on BBC Radio 3

[ejp626]

Well, this is more of a World Music radio announcement, but I was really excited to see Andy Kershaw seems to finally have straightened himself out and is back on BBC Radio 3. He's paired with Lucy Duran for an 8 part program called Music Planet. Roughly one more day to listen to the first program: Music Planet

I do hope that he succeeds through this trial phase and maybe he will get to be one of the rotating DJs for World on 3. Since Charlie Gillett passed away, the remaining two DJs rotate through much faster and I end up hearing far more Irish music than I care to when Mary Ann Kennedy is in the booth. Just in general, I loved his show. I particularly remember when he did Desert Island Discs then did a follow up show where he pulled another 15 or 20 songs he couldn't get to on DID. Classic.
