There's some alarming information that you should all know regarding BBC Radio.

Specialist DJ and presenter Mark Lamarr currently has three award winning radio shows; Shake Rattle & Roll, his reggae show and his '60s show.
By next year, all three programmes will have been removed and replaced by pointless chat shows and regular disposable pop music.

Long gone will be rock'n'roll, rockabilly, rhythm & blues, reggae, ska, bluebeat, soul & vocal group music from BBC Radio 2, a station that for several decades has been a national institution and pretty much a haven on British national radio for the millions of people everywhere who tune in specifically to listen to obscure quality music.

What we all forget is we own the BBC. They're forever telling us it's our station, and so it is.
It's a public funded network, and we're entitled to have our say.

If this information means anything to you then you must complain to the BBC and let them know how you feel.
Fill out the BBC Trust survey at their website:

Just imagine hundreds of emails every hour to Radio 2. Spread the word, and who knows where all this will end up.
It might even be time for another march, but one things for sure, they ain't getting away with it.

Thank you for your attention.

Eddy"The Chief" Clearwater has cancelled his Sunday performance at the Rhythm Riot, due to a family emergency.

In place of The Chief will be none other than myself, in the 10 pm slot on Sunday. I will also be closing out the night/weekend with the Rhythm Riot house band, performing a few selected tunes.

Don't forget to find me this weekend, as I'll be selling copies of my brand-new album, YOU BETTER DIG IT!

Looking forward to this weekend!

Also, Webmistress Tayva has added several new dates for 2009 to the show listing, as well as two new reviews on my new album.
