Album of the Week, Sep. 27, 2023: Rising Sun Melodies by Ola Belle ReedThu, 09/28/2023 - 9:00am | kdrtradioToday's Album of the Week compiles performances recorded in the 1970s by Ola Belle Reed. It's called Rising Sun Melodies. From Smithsonian Folkways: "Ola Belle Reed was a trailblazing force for women in bluegrass music, an Appalachian woman of hard-earned talent and generous ways who delivered honest music sung from the heart. Her songs 'I've Endured,' 'High on the Mountain,' 'My Epitaph,' and many others forge real-life experiences into music steeled with determination, family tradition, and commanding presence. "[These] classic tracks ... remind us why the light of Ola Belle's music shines brightly to this day." |

I played the Islands new album Islomania on Dec 1 @ 4pm.
Figured I'd make a list...
Neutral Milk Hotel ~ In the Aeroplane Over the Sea
LCD Soundsystem ~ Sound of Silver
The Strokes ~ Room on Fire
Asobi Seksu ~ Citrus
Radiohead ~ Kid A
On a lark, I landed on your station this evening. Can you please tell me the name of the group featured in your Album of the Week this evening? They were AMAZING!!!
So sorry, but we have no idea what featured on May 8th! There was a last minute DJ change and we think something was played that was archived... it might perhaps have been the initial AotW episode, which was Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea.
If that wasn't it, reply again and we can maybe try harder to figure it out!
In compliance with FCC regs, we will not be streaming episodes of AotW.
Please tune in live or check out the albums on your own and thank us later.
