Big Wheel Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 (edited) I'm running two radio programs this week, one celebrating the music of LA pianist Carl Perkins, and the other featuring 4 trumpeters who died or disappeared from the scene too early: Booker Little, Dupree Bolton, Wilbur Harden, and Joe Gordon. Barring any last-minute changes, the Perkins show will start at 12 midnight ET this Tuesday night/Wednesday morning and run for thirteen hours; the trumpet show will start on Thursday at 9 AM ET and run until 10 PM; then it will resume at 1 PM on Friday and finish up at midnight. You can listen to both of these streaming at whrb.org .. I'm sorry the Perkins show got mostly buried overnight, but unfortunately I wasn't the one calling the shots on the schedule this time. And a crappy timeslot for people here is a good one for people in Europe and Asia! Edited January 28, 2004 by Big Wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wheel Posted January 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Slight change of plans: it turns out I won't be able to get the VSOP Perkins material until Friday, so I'm pulling a switch--the trumpet show will begin tonight and finish up on the Thursday time slots; the Perkins show will run on Friday. So the new schedule is: Trumpeters tonight from midnight-1pm and Thursday 9am-10pm; Perkins Friday 1pm-midnight. (All times ET) Apologies to anyone who was planning on listening!

Big Wheel Posted January 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 Perkins is up and running now! BTW, special thanks to our own Daniel A for providing a hefty chunk of the material for this show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel A Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 The pleasure was if not all, at least partly mine! I wasn't home, but managed to record almost half of the show with a MP3 stream ripper. I'm looking forward to listening to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
