Playlist 04.09.09

Well, Friday night was the tenth anniversary of my Late Show radio experience. It began as an adjunct of Across The Line in September 1999 with 'Ain't That Enought', and over 10 000 tunes later, we had to reprise the old favourite. It's been a very enjoyable run, allowing me to spend time with the likes of Radiohead, REM, Nick Cave, Billy Bragg, Brian Wilson, Beth Orton, New Order, David Holmes, Neil Hannon, Nanci Griffith, Nils Lofgren, Laura Viers, Robbie Robertson and many more. Maybe I should have made more of the birthday, but it seemed more sensible to keep the head down and to play excellent records instead.
