Technicolour Dreaming

The Cat and the Brat interviewed Adelaide singer/songwriter Emily Davis on the show this week, in the run-up to her CD release show on 4^th June in Adelaide, and played an exclusive pre-release track from that album. We also played a track from the new Belles Will Ring album, a ‘live’ version of Donovan’s “Hurdy Gurdy Man” from 2007 (with amusing ad-libbing), some 60’s Australian psych, and Peter Brat & the Molting Vultures recent ‘Life on the Dole’ 7” single (which will also be performed ‘live’ this Friday at the Grace Emily). And we played the final “Monkees’ Song of the Week” in our series of 25 songs... appropriately it was ‘Swami’, which played over the end-credits of their 1968 movie ‘Head’...
