The Music Show with Andrew Ford, ABC Radio (Australia), October 17, 2020

Post by And No Coffee Table »

EC is interviewed on "The Music Show with Andrew Ford" on Australia's ABC Radio:
https://www.abc.net.au/radionational/pr ... r/12774426
https://abcmedia.akamaized.net/rn/podca ... 201017.mp3

"The Whirlwind" is played at 49:05 (and "Radio Is Everything" at 32:15).
Elvis Costello hasn’t been quiet during the pandemic; his new album 'Hey Clockface' started life in Helsinki, then moved to Paris and New York. But as global lockdowns stopped musicians in their tracks, Elvis finished it off remotely. It's the usual 'expect the unexpected' outing and includes spoken word, jaunty ragtime a la Fats Waller, pop noir and a salute to the enduring nature of radio. And a bonus is the return of longtime Elvis Costello keyboard collaborator Steve Nieve and a guest appearance by Bill Frisell. 'Hey Clockface' is out on 30th October.

The great Iranian singer and master of Persian traditional music Reza-Mohammad Shajarian died this week. He's considered by many to be most revered voices in his country and the Iranian diaspora. Shajarian was on the streets during the 2009 protests against the presidential elections and when president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad referred to the protestors as "dust and trash", Reza-Mohammad Shajarian said his was the voice of “dust and trash”. The great singer is remembered by Melbourne based Iranian musician Gelareh Pour, who has known his music since childhood.

And a track from Aria nominated CD Die Schöne Müllerin.
