After 20 years of talking books together, Paul and Anna have finally turned the microphones on. In First Edition, they use a handful of books to spark wider conversations that we hope are cosy, curious, and occasionally surprising.
Barry has been with 10Radio since the 2005 RSL. He has an incredible knowledge of music including Jazz, Classical, Blues and Improvised.
Growing up in a house filled with the sounds of Basie, Kenton and Bird, my interest in music was piqued. As the period of my musical foundation was the 1970’s though, I found myself drawn to the teenage boy interests of rock music, punk and new wave, in the 1980's I moved towards indie and world music but always with an ear to the roots of blues and jazz. Latterly, my tastes have dissipated even further and this is reflected in my shows. From Lead Belly to Tchaikovsky, Elvis to Richard Hell, and Bowie to the Real Thing.
Marjory and I present Doug’s Big Country on Somerset’s 10 Radio,105.3fm www.10radio.org and have been since February 2008. The show is broadcast every Wednesday afternoon between 2pm and 4pm and repeated every Sunday afternoon between 4pm and 6pm, every Monday between 1.00 and 3.00 pm and, for you night haks between 2.00 and 4.00 a.m. on a Friday morning. You can also hear the show any time by clicking on the show’s poster for Listen Again. The music we both feature is as diverse and interesting as we can make it with a wide range of country music from traditional to new country, to bluegrass, to Americana, Cajun, Tex-Mex, country rock and alternative country. We also like to feature local artists and studio guests with live acoustic sets from local musicians. We go to a lot of live music and like to reflect that in the music we play. I select the tracks blending each with the next as seamlessly as possible while Marjory selects an album of the week giving us a more in-depth look at the featured artist and also gives out local and national gigs. You can contact the show by emailing me at doug@10radio.org or check the show out on Face Book or twitter @Doug Parish1.
