New Releases From M83, The Last Shadow PuppetsBy Virginia Prescott on Tuesday, May 6, 2008.It’s not unusual for musicians to look to the past for inspiration. During the 1990s, we heard a lot of pop bands take a shot at recreating the sounds of the '70s, and over the past several years, more and more '80s influences have made their way into new releases – both on the pop charts and in the electronic underground. Our resident new-music watcher Bill Slammon joins us to give us his impression of two new albums that take their lead from decades past. Bill hosts the show Saturday Morning on WVEW in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Enter Songbird. The Really Big Shoe! (or Vance's Red Shoes)By Kate McNally on Wednesday, April 23, 2008.The Folk Show Folk Show was an incredible evening of music and laughter with three of the folk community's finest. Vance Gilbert dazzled us with his sparkling red shoes and his warm wit and soulful tones. Vance's voice carries with such strength that I believe he could have done a whole show without a mic. And then, there's his heart...Vance Gilbert has a heart so big, none of us want for care. He's a true friend to many according to Cliff Eberhardt another shining star of The Folk Show Folk Show.
