We had Blue Jays, Duck, Dragon, Canaries and Matching Mole. We had a Wheelbarrow and a US radio star asking what a girl is. The resuscitated Aztec Music provided some rare live Normie Rowe, while John Laws just wanted us to be kind to each other. We said goodbye to Col Joye's Joy Boys drummer John Bogie, and heard some latter-day Ray Hoff, from only the second (and final) album of his long career. Nigerian prog and Malaysian punk. A Nazi-era German propaganda swing band and the whimsy of George Formby. Brand new Bob Dylan. Dare you to name another show besides Obscured By... (this week hosted by Michael Hunter) that would provide such a musical smorgasbord. Can't, can you...?
