Currently listening to this station via the Atom. Broadcasts from California and as the name suggests it is an eclectic mix that can serve as ‘music while you work’ as well as being a good source of bands to follow up/investigate further.

Ozric Tentacles | Ethereal Cereal | 1985/6
“Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the now suitably chemicalised Ozric Tentacles”.
Early stuff from the boys and girl, this one featuring live sets at Glastonbury and Reading in the days when you could only get their music on cassette at their gigs and festivals or occasionally by mail order with a cheque or postal order.

A weekend favourite. CD.
" London Conversation is the first album by John Martyn, released on Island Records in 1967. Largely self-penned, the album is much more folk oriented than his blues/jazz tinged later releases. Recording was completed by 9 August and the album was released when Martyn was 19 in October 1967. The album reputedly cost £158 to record.[1] The cover photo was taken by Barry Wentzel on the roof of Island Records boss Chris Blackwell’s flat in Cromwell Road, London"

I recall buying all 6 of their cassettes directly from the band by mail order. I still have 5 of them (but no tape deck to play them on)

Oh I had one back in the day so they were played and loved, but abandoned cassettes a long while ago and bought the Vitamin Enhanced CD box set. I kept the tapes for many years and actually managed to sell one on Discogs last year
