WCWP radio studio's have been on lock down since mid-March due to the  pandemic, luckily though thanks to the help of Dan Cox I have been able to keep the radio show alive recording from a home studio. Without trying to sound to cocky I believe the show has never sounded better and my enthusiasm for it is at an all time high. Lately I have been reading a number of books on creativity as well as listening to various podcasts such as Amon Sul and True Tunes. Also the you tube visits with Malcolm Guite to his library are veritable life savers.

These have helped give me the shot in the arm that I need when a certain amount of cabin fever begins to creep in. When I was doing the show out of the station I would usually bring along maybe sixty or seventy albums with me to have a good choice so that the show would not sound stale or repetitive. Now that I am recording in my home studio that choice is greatly expanded, so the show sounds better and better each time I open up the microphone. Now don't get me wrong I really miss the interaction with the other DJ's each week, I also miss wandering around the lower east side of NYC and going to the various clubs like the Rockwood Music Hall or the Mercury Lounge and seeing the kids that I play on the radio doing their thing live. Over all though I am one happy camper and although online concerts are not the same as a real live gig they will have to suffice for now. By the way for those of you who have an artistic bent be sure to check out the Hutchmoot Homebound conference coming up in October. In just a tad under two more months "Rock N Soul Gospel will be entering its 40th year on 88.1fm WCWP. The show can be heard every Friday from 9 till 11pm NY time and Sundays from 8pm until 10pm on WCWP.org, those are NY time by the way. As always it is my firm commitment to whoever listens that I will play the very best rock n roll on the radio.
