When are you folks going to set up a Facebook account? I'd really like to "become a fan" in the artist listings. I hope to see a podcaster link there soon.
Posted by: Keiko at April 18, 2008 5:39 PMREALLY interesting show. I especially liked the bit where Liza said that British people are more interested in music. I certainly think we are more open to different styles of music than the label dominated States. As Brian says, how crazy is it that Brian read about the Polyphonic Spree from Q! The band should be snapped up in an instant by a major American label, but they are so resistant to trying something new, they won't take the chance. Yet Leona Lewis goes straight in at number 1. Crazy!
Oh, and Kelko, Brian is on Facebook.
Posted by: Wayne from the UK at April 19, 2008 8:01 AMJust to clarify a comment in this episode: Emm Gryner and Danny Michel's series Under the Covers wasn't a one-off. CBC Radio tends to have a lot of short-run programs; a new set of episodes should air later this year.

Thanks!

Posted by: Björn at April 20, 2008 4:05 PMMy favourtite cover of My Favorite Things, is John Coltrane's jazz arrangement. Never wondered before if it is because there are no vocals and therefore no lyrics.
