Check him out on instagram @glennmichaelford for local gigs and other musical happenings. It’s been a fun and successful Radiothon. To celebrate the end of Radiothon, the 3MDR ‘Shockingly Good Gig’ is happening this Sunday 22nd October at Sooki Lounge Belgrave. It’s an additional fundraiser for the station and a great community event, featuring 3MDR DJs, Maggie Alley, Freud and The Family Solution, and DJ Francis With Wolves. Head to 3mdr.com for tickets. Subscribers also get discounted entry. You can still subscribe or donate anytime of the year at 3mdr.com or give the office a call on 9752 5637 weekdays between 10am and 4pm. This week we delve into the Do Your Thing record collection with a vinyl special. The show has two sets of criteria this week. Firstly, the tracks have to be on vinyl 12” or 7” EPs or singles. Secondly, these tracks must be songs that the Do Your Thing collection only has on vinyl records. Some of these tracks aren’t even on youtube which I think is cool. To explore this selection of vinyl treats, we head to the record stores of the British Isles, the east coast of the USA, up and down Australia’s Great Diving Range and a coastal stop on South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula. Should be an intriguing journey. Nice to have ya along. Image: Midnight Oil – The Dead Heart – 12” Cover (1986). Features tracks by Warumpi Band & Coloured Stone on the B-side.
