Radio Fragments

by Jeff on Feb.04, 2010,under Weekly Show

Sometimes, when I'm carefully crafting my show from a huge pile of CDs, I tend to favor the shorter to medium-length songs. I start to worry that people won't want to hear a long song, that I have to keep things moving, changing, to stay interesting. Tonight was my attempt to prove myself wrong.

2 hours, 10 songs. Some of my favorite long-format music.

The show is available from the streaming archive, or you can download the podcast/mp3 version by hour (below).
