A full raft of that artists that you've come to expect, and 2 or 3 sets of music from folks you've never heard of, but should be listening to, along with some of this year's Grammy nominees and winners, as those awards finally became relevant after 35 years.

Mr. Zimmerman, I presume. . . . .

Welcome back for another edition of the Desolation Angel Radio Show podcast. This week, a full load of songs from the Chimes of Freedom - The Songs of Bob Dylan that dropped this week; 80 artists, 4 discs, so helping yourself to 5 cuts or so of artists doing Bob their way is a goooood appetizer. Johnny Cash with the Avett Brothers, Seal and Jeff Beck, Mark Knopfler, Adele, Dave Matthews Band, Eric Burdon and the list goes on.
A full 2 blocks of home-grown Michigan Talent. The entire roster of the Inside Outlaws; Doop & The Inside Outlaws, String of Ponies, Pat V. & The Detroit 3. Jeni Lee Richey & The Great Tribulation, The Deadstring Brothers and the Broken Arrow Blues Band round it out.
The normal, eclectic mix. Close to bone music; raw, passionate, authentic and real. Artists and bands who will not compromise, no matter what, and stay true to their muse and the voice inside that drives them to make the music they do. People like Grayson Capps, Anders Osborne, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound, William Elliot Whitmore, Rich Robinson, Danny Barnes, Kevin Gordon and the list just keeps on going.
All the authenticity and passion that you can handle in 2 1/2 hours worth of a radio show, and it will be impossible to sit still in your chair. Fire it up, download, play it in the pop-up, open it in a separate tab and just keep on rolling with your day.
My thanks, as always, for my life being as good as it is, and for all of you, loyal listeners and music aficionado's who listen to folks who care about their art and the contribution it makes to the human soul. Let's keep these artists and bands working and eating so they can continue to give to the world what they do.
As per normal, and it's probably entirely insane, this broadcast costs you nothing and isn't advertiser or sponsor supported. I'm the CEO, musical director, technical director, producer and host and I'm the funding for it, so the price is simple. Share this, share the living shit out of it. Share it on Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, through e-mail; however you can. Leave some comments and some ratings, I love interacting with y'all.

Rollin' on down the line. . . . .

Desolation Angel Radio 2012
The regular weekend show is back after the holiday/end of the year/football frenzy hiatus and is smokin' hot. Hip-shakin', blood-roiling, can't stay still in your seat music starting 2012 off right and hitting on all cylinders. The music you're used to from DR Radio; true, authentic, passionate, raw, real, close to the bone, down in the blood music made by artists who absolutely will not compromise.
Blocks of music from blues women, outlaw country, renegade rock and rollers that speak to where we're at, who we are and the thing that unites all of us, the human spirit. Enjoy, share the hell out of it, and thanks for being a listener and supporter.

2011 in review. . . . .

This edition takes on the year past, and looks at some of the fantastic music that came out in 2011. There were a lot of great releases, and music that flew under the radar, but by the end of the year was bubbling to the top and more and more "mainstream" folks were getting a chance to hear it. This list is by no means definitive, or a "best of" piece of crap. It's almost impossible to do a "best of". All music is completely dependent on the moment you hear it, what's going on around you, what memories may be associated with it, and is also dependent on what came out ahead of it, or after it. It's just a list of the music that I enjoyed in 2011, the stuff that came out this year that made it into constant rotation in the truck, on my home system, on the computer and on my playlists. Thanks for being a constant and loyal listener, and thanks for helping get these artists more widely known and out there.
Peace out,
The Desolation Angel
