This week we wish legendary producer Tony Visconti Happy Birthday; go back in time to 1971 and listen to some brand new music from Frost* and John Holden.

Happy Sunday Folks!

Here is this week’s show, originally broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK last evening at 2100 UK time.

This week’s Birthday Special features the larger than life drummer Mike Portnoy with a selection of tracks from the various projects he is associated with.

The lost classic comes from Khan, and the show ends with a dedication to my good friend Mark Spruce who has fallen in love with the new album by Downes Braide Association – Halcyon Hymns – (and who can blame him – it is rather special!!)

Have a good week!

Happy Sunday!

This week’s edition of the Doorway is a real treat for Genesis fans as we wish Happy Birthday to Tony Banks.

There’s another track from The Anchoress’ new record The Art of Losing. It is getting rave reviews in the media and quite right too.

The long lost classic album was recorded in 1969 and not released until 2013 and there’s the usual mix of classic album tracks along the way.

Don’t forget the show is broadcast on 103 The Eye on FM and online every Saturday night’s at 2100 UK time.

Have a great week!

Here is the podcast of last night’s Doorway, broadcast on FM and online on 103 The Eye here in the UK.

It celebrates Carl Palmer’s Birthday, so you can expect a liberal helping of ELP and a look at some of his work with other artists.

Tonight’s long lost classic comes from Danish band Polyfeen and there’s brand new music from an amazing new record from The Anchoress (Catherine Anne Davies). The show closes with a gem of a track from the Downes Braid Association.

Have a great week!

Hello and welcome to a very Spring like episode of the Doorway, first broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK last night.

Sadly the nice weather that inspired the show didn’t last too long but the music is timeless!

I’m introducing a new feature in next week’s show where I go in hunt of long lost and forgotten classic albums. I’ve been digging around over the last couple of months and have unearthered some really interesting finds.  If there is something that you think will interest my very discerning audience, please let me know!

Have a good week!
