Schedules, Playlists, and Goldfish




Hello All...
Today, Schedules and Playlists are the name of the game. Firstly, Playlists. Hmmm.
Listeners have been asking if it is possible to publish lists of songs/artists played on The Album Zone Programmes. No problem !
Well, almost. Some have asked these to be published in advance. Ha ha !
No, that won't happen, as our Shows are not playlisted at all, and often change as they are in progress.
That's the way we like it.


However, we will begin to publish the playlists after the Shows themselves have been aired first on RTI. This will begin this Thursday, 27th April.

As the new Johnny Reece Programme airs, as ever, on RTI on Wednesday nights, we will publish the playlist here the next day, Thursday. Every week. That do ? Good.





Ah, now. Schedules. Well, we have been promising you these for ages, eons, centuries, or even a few weeks.
So, here goes, pay attention please, no slouching at the back, and we'll be asking questions later.



RTI (via www.rti.fm - check their Website for full details of Internet, Satellite, FM and AM frequencies) every Wednesday evening, at 22.00 hours, UK time :

--------------------------------------------------------------
We welcome back Zoe Street to The Album Zone, next week. Zoe has been on holiday for a while and is raring to go (in a generally punky, new-wavy, ska type of way) and you can catch her shows, as detailed above.

So, there you have it. All the details you may need, or not. But you asked for them, so you've got them.

Meanwhile, spare a thought for the Album Zone mascot, Blubber the Wonder Goldfish.
Blubber has been watching over us here for 4 years, despite the fact we were told by the Pet Shop that he'd last about 3 weeks. He's not been well of late, but we're taking good care of him and aiding his recovery.
Keep him in your thoughts. These things are important to us. We might be crazy, but we're generally nice people.
