    Hey Paul!

    Thanks for the song Death of the Cog, it was good. I enjoyed it but I’m afraid the artist was wrong. The artist was The Cog is Dead. I’m sorry… I should have been specific on a song by Steam Powered Giraffe. My bad.

    • Anonymous

      I wondered about that. its said on my setlist that it was The Cog is Dead, but I thought it was a misprint. Sorry I disseminated incorrect info. I will flog myself.

    Hey Paul!

    I should have been more specific on a song by Steam Powered Giraffe. The song Death of the Cog is actually by the group The Cog is Dead. I’m sorry about that… I love your show and I’m very sorry I did give you a song to play specifically… Maybe next week you could play Me and My Baby by Steam Powered Giraffe? It’s a really good one.

    Once again I am so sorry for not being specific!!

    I used to love the progressive rock ballads; how about this classic… on the 1973 album Brain Salad Surgery from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer – Still You Turn Me On
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5rfHO3m3wE&feature=colike

    Or, King of the Mountain by Kate Bush from the 2005 album Aerial
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8xk_AkeP5c&feature=colike

    And one just because I’ve been missing my Grandmother (Babcia in Polish) It’s the “Polish Prince” Bobby Vinton with his hit “My Melody of Love”

      Do you know of Jon Anderson’s Olias of Sunhillow?

        I do indeed, I am not sure if it is available in download though, I will check.

      • Paul Muller

        ‘Olias of Sunhillow’ is a wonderful Album from 1976. I own the CD. Jon Anderson (Lead Singer of Yes) spent some years learning numerous instruments, and supposedly plays all instruments on the Album. However, some say that Vangelis contributed in large measure.

      well, suggest something else !!

      • PeterJ

        Well I did find this electronica artist Royksopp (there’s an umlaut over the first o but I still have no idea how to say it) while searching the Bobby Vinton song. This has a sample of Vnton’s Blue on Blue, but this is definitely something I will need to look into further.

    I just discovered the KXT 91.7 ‘listen live’ link. You might want to promote this link, so that friends and family of your DFW listeners, who live out of town, can listen to your show as well.
