Sep 6, 2020 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM

With Readie Righteous

What can we do? PRAY...and VOTE

A healthy dose of Gospel and Gospel-inspired music, some Afro-beat, as always, and a soupcon of Argentinian Prog thrown in for good measure. A birthday tribute to 2musical icons - and - wait for it - a track featuring them BOTH.

Welcome to Recherché for another Sunday!!

Hi! This is Krista from Habitat Enrichment, always nice tune in to your show!

Hi Krista, so nice to see you! Thanks for tuning in! How goes it?

It's going well! I'm lying on my bed next to my sleeping toddler. Just vibing. How about you?

Sounds like a great Sunday! I'm sitting on my patio listening and chatting! Looking at the trees and the sky. A beautiful day!

I will need to check out that Heard the Angels Singing record! I don't think I've listened to it. I recognize some tracks from it but I've not listened in its entirety

I think you'll like it! I still need to listen to more of it...

Happy birthday to Roger Waters today!

Stick it to the man!

We are listening and enjoying the show!!

Hey MARVIN! Great to see you! Thanks for tuning in! Love to you and Beata!!

Yes, it is happening right now!!!

Oh yeah!

Listening while doing some afternoon writing. Love the show. First time catching this program.

Thank you, Adam! Welcome to Recherché!

Happy to be here.

Curious as to what are you working on? An article, or a novel. perhaps?

Just wanted to say 👋 I was praying with ya.

Amazing guitarist in this band- Héctor Stark.

Eh, Stoney- amen, brother! Sometimes it's what we can do!

Hi Readie! Yes, I'm a big fan of the new real-time playlists with both their information on artist/title/album plus the sample-playing function. I just wish more WPRB hosts would be using it right now.

Hey Richard, great to hear from you! Thanks for tuning in- yeah- I love the new look of the live playlst- it's here to stay. We're just rolling it out, so some DJs are getting used to it. I just dove in! It will get better with time, guaranteed! Hope you're well!

And, another superb Recherche show today. As thoughtfully powerful as it is enjoyable. Keep up the good work (and, of course, the "shenanigans")!

You're a mensch, Mr. Smith! A loyal listener of Recherché and WPRB! Thanks, brother!

It's my great pleasure & honor. And, hey! Stay well yourself!

Indeed, Richard! Always!

Van the Man!

Im back. To answer your question, Readie, my current project is a fantasy novel called Homunculus. It deals with themes of trauma and coping among other things. I'm hoping to get it published some day along with plenty more stories.

Sounds very cool, lots of WPRB people love fantasy- keep goin' strong, Adam- kep me posted!!

Will do. As of todays show it is 175 pages, 18 chapters, and over 20,000 words. Its not even close to done but Im still going steady with it.

That's it, Adam, steady as she goes, best of luck on this- sounds insane( in the best way!)

Sail on!

Van Morrison kills the vox on this - and the harmonies by The Band- this is my favorite vocal for CN.

Happy birthday Roger (today) and Van the Man- Aug. 31st. Together right 'chere!

Not only do I get an incredible performance of Roger Waters and Van Morrison but a plug for my show! What can I say other than thanks for everything!!

Marvin- your show, "Classical Discoveries" has been an inspirarion to me since I discovered WPRB so many years ago! Thanks for an amazing program, and thanks for listening to Recherché!!

Love me some Black Pumas!!!

Hey Readie!! I am blushing!!

That's okay, Marvin- looks good on ya! Shout out to the beautiful Beata!!

Audience participation on this one, coming up soon! Call and response!

For the women (Musow) of: Cameroon! Kenya! Gambia! Zambia! Hertme! Sing with Sona! Perfect!

This is such a sick performance!

Oh yeah, my brother Adam!

This is an Afrikan music festival in Hertme, Netherlands, caceled this year (COVID)- but on my bucket list!!

Killer show~

Thanks Adam, thanks all for being here! Love you! See you next Sunday! 2 PM
