Tomorrow wednesday 8/2 is the release of IPR radio’s documentary about the 1970’s supergroup Lindisfarne. Take a listen to the trailer!

¨Don’t Look Back¨. When people say things like ¨Don’t Look Back¨ I alway's wish I could be just like them. They must be worry free and as happy as Larry! However life isn’t like that. Somehow we all seem to have a talent to carry a lot of extra baggage with us throughout life. But, the older one gets I find the lighter that baggage seems to be, and then I wonder when was it I started to pack those bags? So the only advice or conciliation I can give is this. The kinder and honest your are throughout your early days and years, the less you will have to pack into those very big bags! Life can be long. So be Kind, be Happy and be Honest to each other and all of humanity will benefit. Most of all you.  Enjoy the music!

¨Changing Times¨. Hopefully we’ve all been there and experienced it, or possibly your on the way into it. Yes I’m talking about love and affection, relationships and partnerships. There’s nothing like it, there’s up’s and there’s downs and this weeks music reflects all those up's and the downs. But there’s no getting away from it, if we want to make this world of ours a better place, we need to give a lot more of that love and respect to each other. Remember what we give, we will always get back in buckets. But maybe not in the way you expected… Give a little love to somebody today! Its well worth it! Be happy and enjoy!

So lets hope this weeks program which is silky smooth can I say, bring you some of that fun and some of that happiness over the next thirty minutes. A lot of Ozzies in todays show strutting their stuff and selling their wares. Together with a little Irish, a touch of American and a dazzle of Shropshire in the UK. Be happy and enjoy!

¨A New Journey¨. That was said to me by a dear friend at the start of this new year. But a new journey can mean a lot of things to different people and in different situations. Many have had it difficult over the past few years and still have it so, and many have their mountain still to climb. For others a new journey may mean a new goal or a new thing to find your happiness. Whatever it may mean to you, let's not forget those who still have that mountain to climb and let's not forget to always be there and rally them on when needed.

This week its called ¨Never Give Up¨ We’ve had another year of restrictions and heartache and in many cases isolation. Isolation comes in many forms if it be forced upon you, or self inflicted. This is the time of the year were people need people. The closeness of a friend or stranger who can just say ¨hello and how are you doing,¨can mean so much to someone who feels alone, down and pretty much helpless. That little gesture of saying ¨hello¨ can give that spark of light to keep them going.

Welcome to December 21 yes we are here already. Several great new releases on this weeks program with some fantastic artists from Poland, Germany, the United States and Switzerland. Thats what you can call music from around the world, or maybe parts of it. Enjoy!

Cover songs over the years have always been a challenge for artists, mainly just to get them right, to perform them well, it's a challenge to reach that peak of perfection and to give respect to the original work. In this weeks show we have a handful of talented artist that have definitely picked up the gauntlet, and are ready to give their version of some of the great songs Welcome to ¨The Covers 2¨on IPR radio.

This week¨When America came to Liverpool¨ I would put in the class of a bio documentary. It’s been a 50 year journey, not only for the band America, but for me personally. Today is the anniversary of when America performed at the Liverpool Boxing Stadium on November 11th 1971, and I and some school friends had tickets. America’s success was enormous at the time and their future as singer songwriters was looking good. Life for those three young American boys from London couldn’t be better… If only it was the same for our little band of brothers and sisters, who for the most part was sitting on the block in Blenheim Street off Scotland Road.

We all have a bit of a rebel in us I hope, if it be music or just arguing with your mum and dad while living at home, it's something we need to be or go through to become the person you want to become. The main thing is that when you become that person never forget to be nice to people, especially your mum and dad. In this weeks show Rebel I'm sure that all the artists are nice to their mum and dads. Enjoy the music!
