More of the same this week on Backbeat - except different, because you'll rarely hear anything repeated, there's just too much to play. Such as gospel from Clara Ward, jug band music from Clarence Williams, African jive on a pennywhistle from West Nkosi, a Japanese take on a classic Duke Ellington song, Eddy Arnold's first hit and a nice new one from Reid Jamieson.

Backbeat is also available in a 56 and 58 minute versions in three separate files if you want breaks. I am happy to provide custom station IDs, promos and liners. Email Lorne@Backbeatradio.com or visit www.backbeatradio.com for more information.
