PETE FEENSTRA' S 600th ROCK & BLUES SHOW Tue 14 Oct 7pm

PETE FEENSTRA' S 600th ROCK & BLUES SHOW Tue 14 Oct 7pm UP AND COMING: Tue 14th Oct 19.00-21.00hrs Back in 2014 I was Mc’ing and DJ'ing The Skegness Rock & Blues Show and Minehead Giants of Rock, something I did for 3 years. As a result I was asked by Getreadytorockradio if I had thought about doing a radio show.  Being as I was also a rock blues promoter and reviewing for GRTR, The Blues Mag and various other outlets I saw it as a two fold opportunity to play some great music and highlight some equally great tour bands.  So hell yeah!..........►►►

PETE FEENSTRA 600^TH ROCK & BLUES FOR GETREADYTOROCKRADIO (OVER 11 YEARS AND 72,000 MINUTES OF THE GOOD STUFF).

Back in 2014 I was Mc’ing and DJ'ing The Skegness Rock & Blues Show and Minehead Giants of Rock, something I did for 3 years.As a result I was asked by Getreadytorockradio if I had thought about doing a radio show. Being as I was also a rock blues promoter and reviewing for GRTR, The Blues Mag and various other outlets I saw it as a two fold opportunity to play some great music and highlight some equally great tour bands.  So hell yeah!

My original efforts were Spartan, tentative and sometimes laughable, but hopefully the music triumphed. I remember the very first track I played wasn’t even broadcast, as I forgot to plug a lead in.

Apologies to Albert Collins and Roadhouse, though the latter did end up on that first show)

Pretty soon I expanded into the PF Feature interview show (not sure how many of those I’ve done) and I hoped that if nothing else some folks might gravitate towards the kind of music you rarely hear on mainstream radio. A lot has changed since those days. Physical albums have decreased, though vinyl sales have gone up, but the cost of postage (especially internationally) means most of the music is now digital, so its good to also wave the flag for the disappearing world of album artwork where possible. 

Going back to the 600^th show, I will be playing some old, new and personal favourites (please see playlist below), plus as on my original show, Jackie McAuley (Them, Trader Horn, Poormouth, etc) one of the most underrated musicians of our time. So that’s about it, hope you can join me, or at least check out the music on the subsequent mixcloud page.
