The Songwriters Ep 8 - Hank Williams 23-04-2024
Hank’s time at the top was brief but in that time he managed 41 singles and two LPs and of 30 charting songs,11 went to number one. Three films have been made about his life - 1964’s Cheating Heart, 1980’s Hank Williams: The Show He Never Gave and 2015’s I Saw The Light. Otherwise the endless trail of tribute albums and cover versions are a testament to his songwriting skills. The Songwriters Hall of Fame describes him as ‘one of the most significant and influential American singers and songwriters of the 20th century’. Hank Williams - Honky Tonkin’ Bill Munroe - Never Again George Thorogood & The Destroyers - Move it On Over The Carpenters - Jambalaya Hank Williams - Jambalaya The Rolling Stones - You Win Again Bob Dylan - I Can't Get You Off Of My Mind Hank Williams - I Saw The Light Luke the Drifter - Pictures From Life's Other Side Roy Orbison - Mansion on the Hill Hank Williams Jnr - Wealth Won’t Save Your Soul Hank Williams - Hey Good Looking Hank Williams - I’ll Never Get Out Of This World Alive The Residents - Kaw-Liga Jerry Lee Lewis - Your Cheatin' Heart Hank Williams - Lost Highway

The Joy of Classical Music – Ep 49 - 22-04-2024
This is part two of our brief and fragmentary exploration of music inspired by artists and their paintings and we open with the aria That was You Know I Want To Help You from composer Bernard Rand's 2010 opera Vincent. Also featured: Hungarian composer Sandor Veress was so taken by the work of Swiss artist Paul Klee that he wrote a seven part suite called Homage to Paul Klee to express his admiration. In his 1990 opera Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara took scenes from the life of Vincent van Gogh starting in the mental hospital at Saint-Rémy, where he painted The Starry Night. The story moves back and forth in time through his memories Rautavaara took material from this opera to create his Sixth Symphony, Vincentiana.
