Technicolour Dreaming

Dropping into our P.O. on the way into 3D Radio in Adelaide for our show, we had the good fortune to receive our packages of back issues from the brilliant Greek psych mag ‘TimeMazine’, including the awesome compilations that go with each [thank you Michalis!] and another pile of CDs from the Active Listener’s on-line store in New Zealand [thank you Nathan!], so we had plenty of new music to share with you on top of the trusty bagful we were already taking into the station. Whew! Another game of “what do we play first?!” But we managed, though as always there was a LARGE heap of unplayed vinyl and CDs... but they’ll be on the agenda next week, fear not dear listener!.....
