Terri Meets Bob Marley

Dec 7 2008

As you know we are currently in production with 'Beyond the Wire' our documentary on Belfast Punk. We were lucky enough to get a chance to interview Terri Hooley the last time we were in Belfast. Terri is the man behind the Good Vibrations record label that gave a start to most of the Ulster bands. He was also the man who broke the Undertones, RUDI, Outcasts, Ruefrex etc. A complete lunatic and a total gentleman, Terri recounts the time he met Bob Marley in London in the late 70s. You can check it out here


We're now about to start to edit the show, so it's gonna be a busy Christmas. We hope to have the show completed by late January 2009 .. we'll see. :)

Actually folks, no playlist this week. Some dumbass forgot to ring his record bag into the station for the show! That's a fairly serious handicap for a music show. But we struggled through using my library on Last.FM. A cool music web site I've been playing around with recently, and last night it saved my bacon.

See y'all next week.

Peace yo

TESTAMONIALS

"Friday night on Flirt is the best night of radio in the country. 'Soundtrack to the Streets' and 'NightVision' are truly original shows for Ireland and showcase the best of black music .. 'Soundtrack' plays all the latest bangin' Hip Hop, where as the RockSoulJah on NightVision mixes it all up; Ol' Skool, Reggae, Funk & Soul, Latin Hip Hop and all sortsa goodies. U never really know what u might get next. The only certainty is it will all be quality music. Wish they had shows like this on Dublin radio. Wes' Wes' Y'all.

Keep on keepin on, yo"
