Amazing Songs & Other Delights #93 – And The Circus Came & Left Town edition on Yé Yé Radio Monday 16 & 23

Elvis Presley

My radio show Amazing Songs & Other Delights # 93 – And The Circus Came & Left Town edition is broadcasted Monday February 16 & 23, 3-4pm (London time) on Yé Yé Radio: yeyeradio.com (or on the app).

Monday February 14 is Carnival Day. Amazing Songs & Other Delights # 93 – And The Circus Came & Left Town edition combines carnival, fair, fetes, rodeo songs, or songs that mention those things with the circus, the carny, arriving and leaving.

The programme titles comes from Bert Jansch’s When the Circus Comes to Town and Kyuss’ … And The Circus Leaves Town. Interestingly, both albums were released in 1995.

There’s a fair deal of my beloved Elvis, three songs, enough Chico Buarque and Bert Jansch, two songs each.

Bert is essentially the starting point of this show. I’ve only recently found Jackson C. Frank, through the book Dazzling Stranger: Bert Jansch and the British Folk and Blues Revival, and marvelled.

I came up with another of mine apparently implausible to make sense of such diverse type of songs and genres. Feira Popular, Chic, The Magnetic Fields, Kyuss, The Smiths and others keep company to Elvis, Bert, Chico, Jackson C. in a lively, but with sorrow here and there under an upbeat tune, programme.

Also featured is Gary Lucas’ – Live Score for The Chase Scene of Tod Browning’s 1932 film Freaks. And David Bowie’s Ashes To Ashes, for Ash Wednesday.
