A Reason To Wake Up: Finishing A Job
A Reason to Wake Up: Finishing A Job. A special series with Daniel Kitson during our Annual Fundraiser - it's live, it's not repeated and not archived. "The idea for these shows came from sorting through all my CDs at the end of November. I thought it would take three days and it took me nearly three weeks because cases were empty, CDs were loose, things were stuck on them etc. I washed them and got them back in their boxes and then started deciding which ones I was going to keep. I ended up with three piles: Keeping; Charity Shop; Listen to then Make a Decision. There were around 500 CDs in that third pile. I dropped them off to Resonance mid-December and the music on these shows comes exclusively from that pile. I'll have a listen and then decide whether I'm keeping it. The ones I'm not keeping, I'll drop at a charity shop on the way home.” [Does not repeat. Next episode: next weekday morning at 7am.]
