Happy Frosty Sunday!

Here’s the podcast of last night’s FM radio show, broadcast here in the UK on 103 The Eye.

As we bid farewell to Trump, there’s an American theme that runs through The Doorway this week, as well as the usual mix of old and new.

The show is rounded off by an epic live version of Freebird – as a special request to one lucky listener!

Have a great week!

Happy Sunday Folks!

Today marks the 5 year anniversary of the death of David Bowie. To mark this auspicious anniversary, The Doorway reflects upon the musical legacy of this iconic artist. From Space Oddity to Blackstar the show follows his career through his ever changing characters and phases.

The world has not been quite the same since he left us but he left us a rich legacy to enjoy in his absence.

Have a great week!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I hope you all had a nice day. Here is the Boxing Day edition of the Doorway broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK. As it is the last show of 2020, I’ve taken the opportunity to review some of the great music released during the year. Despite everything, I think that the world of Progressive Rock is in pretty rude health!

The show ends with stunning tracks from my two personal favourite releases of 2020; ‘Weltzschmerz’ by Fish, and ‘Between a Breath and a Breath’ by Judy Dyble and David Longdon.

Here is the link to the video of the fabulous new single from Leprous that I forgot to include in last weeks’s blog – listen out for it in next week’s show as well!   https://youtu.be/85drl9-lqRU

Happy New Year!

Season’s Greetings!

Here’s the podcast of last night’s FM radio show, broadcast last night here in the UK on 103 The Eye .

In this week’s show I play a Chrtistmas song that is so bad its wonderful!

There’s a medley of cover versions and a beautiful new track from Leprous, all rounded off by an epic from Karmakanic.

I hope you are able to salvage something from Christmas this year. The Doorway will be back on 103 The Eye at 2100 on Boxing Day with a review of the best releases of 2020.

Merry Xmas!

Happy Sunday!

This is the podcast of last night’s FM radio show, broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK.

I follow a trail of musicians and connections that starts with King Crimson in 1969 and ends with King Crimson in 2015. Every track in between is connected by a musician. I really hope you all enjoy the journey!

Next week is the last show of 2020 so there’s some festive fun as well as a look back on the musical year.

Have a great week.
