FFFoxy Podcast #74

I’m still working my way through the piles of music that I’ve acquired over the past couple of months, so on this installment of the FFFoxy Podcast show you’ll again hear plenty of newer releases and reissues, along with a couple of older tracks that I thought tied-in well with that material. Things start off…

FFFoxy Podcast #73

On account of kicking around a few different feature show possibilities and slowly gathering up a decent-sized pile of new music to play, I’m a few weeks overdue on putting a new podcast show together. I can assure you, though, that I haven’t gone into complete hibernation mode, even though we’ve had to endure a…

FFFoxy Podcast #72

Greetings and Happy New Year from a very frigid upper Midwest. As I was stumbling into the studio in the dim early morning hours to record this show, the wind chill was hovering in the sub-zero range and slated to drop even further into the negative double digits in the days ahead. So, as we…

FFFoxy Podcast #69

I had mentioned at the end of the last episode that a feature on Pumice was in the works for the weeks ahead, and I can assure you that is indeed still the case. But, in the interest of showcasing some more new music, along with a few recent record fair scores, I thought I’d…

FFFoxy Podcast #68

We’re at mid-November now, so the onslaught of best-of lists and year-end recaps are just right around the corner.
