NEW FOR JANUARY 15, 2008 For the second year, Best Radio listener and contributor, Rick from New York has compiled the best tracks from the 2007 Best Radio You Have Never Heard series. Not to be confused with a Best of 2007 list, these tracks are hand picked from the 24 podcasts released in 2007. To be sure Rick has include a good number of 2007 releases in his choices, but also included songs that were played this year that compliment them very well. Here's what Rick had to say about the process: With a whole year's worth of material to work with (24 podcasts!), you might think that putting together a "Best Of.." compilation would be fairly straight forward. For me, it's not quite that simple. While the process is mostly intuitive, I am always haunted by the voice of Rob, the music snob from the film "High Fidelity:" "The making of a great compilation..., like breaking up, is hard to do and takes ages longer than it might seem. You gotta kick off with a killer, to grab attention. Then you got to take it up a notch, but you don't wanna blow your wad, so then you got to cool it off a notch. There are a lot of rules..." Just what are those other "rules"? Therein lies the mystery. One of the things that Perry does is to hit the listener with a "sucker punch", which is a piece of music that is instantly recognizable, yet completely unexpected. I love that. He also likes to string songs together in a contextual way that can border on the thematic. I've tried to stay true to the spirit of BRYHNH while inflicting my own take on it and I feel that I've come up with something a little less groove-oriented and perhaps more "Pop", but at the same time, something that diehard BRYHNH fans will appreciate. Enjoy. Yes, Rick has done a bang up job again. Please use the link below to leave a comment about Ricks Pix for 2007.

From The Archive With last months archive entry Stuff, Different Order, it doesn't seem right not to follow it up with the companion piece More Stuff, Different Order.

From The Archive This months Archive title might be one the eldest of the bunch. Originally recorded in 2002, I took the liberty to re-edit this one for it's return into the list.

NEW FOR JULY 15, 2006 The mid-month podcast for July was in the can and awaiting upload when the sad news arrived that legendary rock icon and Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett had died at the age of 60. This event struck a chord with me and the results are this July's mid-month new release. The previously intended title will have to wait until August 1, 2006. This podcast is a tribute to Syd Barrett. Even though of course there is some Pink Floyd music in the show, it is more of a tribute to Syd's vision. I like to think of it as traveling music for Syd's iPod as he makes the trek to the Gates of Dawn, or perhaps some gardening music for the great beyond as, in his recent past, gardening was one of Syd's few hobbies. In the end, you might find it an atypical Best Radio release, but it will likely have a place in your catalog. After you hear it once, it will become one of those shows you'll feel compelled to "pull off the shelf" for late night introspective journeys . . . 1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts 1-5) - Pink Floyd 2. See Emily Play - David Bowie 3. Astronomy Domine - Pink Floyd 4. I Had Too Much To Dream - The Electric Prunes 5. Exposure - Robert Fripp 6.

From The Archive Straight from the sublime to the ridiculous, I bring you this month's lighthearted back catalog episode.
