Hear us : Replay Radio and Bondi Tunes, Mons and Tues at 9pm UK time, also on WCRV 97.7, Pennsylvania, USA. and Radio Scilly on Suns at 9pm.
You never know what is on next. That's how we like it.
We hope you like it too. Welcome to our world. Available 24/7 to the World, via our AZ Archive, with 18 years of AZ Programming, at www.albumzone.co.uk.
Hang on, no, it's a little too early for that. But, Xmas planning is something we have to do here at AZ Towers, as many of our programming outlets want a good deal of shows upfront, so, it's been a planning, scheduling week. No surprises then, that a little Xmas activity is beginning to creep into some of the programmes.
Great to have Simon G back with us after a little absence, and his 'Xmas Special' is superb - yes, I'm biased - but I heard it upfront and loved it. Xmas songs not so obvious, but great all the same. That will be coming your way for the first time, on Tuesday 16th December (8pm UK) and then 20th December (02.00 UK) via www.radioseagull.com.
Just yesterday, the very punklicious Zoe arrived here at AZ Towers, to cut her latest opus. Expect Ska, Punk, and some strangely mad Xmassy messages on this one, which airs for the first time on Monday 8th December (8pm UK), and is repeated at 02.00 (UK) on Friday 12th. Once again, this is via our good friends at Radio Seagull (www.radioseagull.com).
Both of these particular programmes will be repeated again over the Xmas period, I'll let you know when the time comes, ok ?
This coming week, the AZ programmes via Seagull, Monday through Wednesday, feature Richard Bismarck, Gil Legine, and Johnny Reece, respectively. As ever, 8pm UK time (or whatever the time is in your particular zone !).
A quick plug, for the new MySpace page, for Radio Seagull. It is currently in the building stage, with new galleries to come shortly. It's at : www.myspace.com/radioseagull.
Oh, and one more Xmas mention - Radio Seagull are airing a series of one-off special programmes for Xmas day, all one hour in duration. Our own Johnny Reece is due on at 13.00 CET (12.00 UK, 07.00 EST).
There are some catching up on Playlists to do, and current playlists will be published later today via the Blog, on our MySpace page. As you know, we're at www.myspace.com/albumzone.
Tell me this - is it right that I should quickly sneak online whilst at work to tell you about new AZ Shows being broadcast round the globe this week ? Well of course it is ! Tonight, via Radio Seagull - www.radioseagull.com - we welcome back Richard Bismarck with a newie, the first since his trips to the far east. Expect many tales, and great music, as ever. Tomorrow, Wednesday, it's the newie from Johnny Reece, also via Seagull. Both shows can be heard at 21.00 CET, that's 20.00 UK, or 15.00 EST. Ah, so much music, so many timezones...
Thanks to the guys at WCRV for telling us about this weekends shows via 97.7 in the Lake Ariel region in Pennsylvania - they are getting first play of the new Rich Phoenix show, on Friday. Oh - don't forget - our shows via Seagull are repeated at 03.00 CET on Fri, Sat, Sun, which is 21.00 hours EST - much more amenable times for those of you Stateside. I've got to get back to work ! Have a great week, and thanks, as ever, for your support.
Hi all, looking through some recent posts, I discovered something missing. Playlists ! So, I will put that right this time, with some recent details from our little squad, posted via the Blog on our MySpace page at myspace.com/albumzone, and on our Blogger, at thealbumzone.blogspot.com.
Meanwhile, on to the here and now, and tonight in AZ land, we have the return of Simon G, via our good friends at Radio Seagull (www.radioseagull.com). It's 8pm tonight, UK time. Tomorrow, Wednesday, same time, it's the newie from Johnny Reece.
We are just getting all details together, and when completed, I'll have full AZ November Schedules for you. We are filling in the gaps as I type, and expect newies from Andy Miles, Rich Phoenix, Zoe, and the rest of the gang...
