THE END. Thanks again everyone. It seems to have been missed by many, but after the show that is presently airing this week, I have officially retired from radio after 40+ years. This page will soon be archived, and my websites may soon go dark as well, but fear not. As for the archives of my shows, they remain available on the Internet Archive simply by searching for the collections Out of the Woods and/or Music for the Mountain (The Liquid Frequency Test still exists there as well). The shows also continue to air in repeat fashion with a number of great stations who requested permission to keep them spinning! Thanks for all of the support from fans, artists, stations, agents, and labels over the years. You’re the best!

END OF THE RUN - 'Out of the Woods Radio' and 'Music For The Mountain Bluegrass'

Hello All. It's been a long time coming, but I have decided after 40 years to retire from radio effective immediately. Why? Between my work life, my family life, and other pursuits, I simply do not have the time that I once had. It's time to do other things. It's something that has been on my mind for the last couple of years, and I came to the realization that the shows are just not sustainable if I cannot give them the time I once did.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me, been involved with the shows, or has become a friend. I'm still around, so feel free to stay in touch.

This website may not always be accessible, but past shows will remain available at archive.org - simply search under the show name. The final new programs have now been recorded and are presently on the websites. They will be available for Pacifica members stations via AudioPort on 1/16 before the air dates. Stations airing the shows have been contacted, and some will continue to air archived Out of the Woods and Music for the Mountain shows (thanks to them!). Please feel free to PM or email me with any questions. Thank you again for allowing my participation. I wish you all the best.

Hello everyone. Another update on the status of on-demand access to the radio shows. The Internet Archive is mostly back up, but I am still not able to log in to upload new content. You can still access a lot of the shows if you go to the page(s) and select the player option called 'webamp'. For some reason the most recent upload from late September is not available at the moment, but others I have sampled are. Both Out of the Woods and Music for the Mountain Bluegrass have separate pages on the site. Once I am able to log in and upload again, I will update everything I can. Here is the page for Out of the Woods:

Hey all. Just a bit of an update about what's going on with the radio shows. The pages which host the on-demand version of the shows linked from my pages was recently hacked, and they have not restored the archives as of yet. I am speaking of the Internet Archive, which is a well-known source for all kinds of historical and contemporary media. Please consider sending them some support as they get themselves back online. Since the on-demand versions are offline at present, the only way to hear the new shows presently is via one of the radio stations which carry the shows each week. Below is what I'm sure is just a partial list. There are other affiliates who have not even alerted me to the fact they are airing the shows. Another option is to send me a private message and I will send you a copy of the show(s) privately. Finally, it's probably been more than obvious that I have not been posting a reminder every week. I have been working on other projects this past summer, and new shows have been coming out only every other week. Stations have been receiving both new and older shows, but I have not posted reminders here unless the show is new. This is essentially my new 'semi-retired' model. This has always been just a hobby, but it is a hobby with many obligations to stations, etc., so it has always been time intensive to produce, edit, and distribute. I'm hoping that during the coming colder months that I will be able to put together more new content to keep things as fresh as possible. For now, you might find the shows on some of the following stations: CJMP, KALH KBOG, KCHW, KDUR, KECG, KFCE, KGFN, KGIG, KHOI, KIBH, KIOF, KKRN, KOCF, KOPN, KPHD, KRFP, KSVR, KVRZ, KXCJ, KXCR, WBDH, WDRT, WEJP, WGDR, WGXC, WHPW, WJEG, WLPP, WLSL, WMNB, WNEC, WNHN, WNPA, WOOL, WOTR, WPVM, WRAQ, WRST, WSCS, WSLR, WTM, WWOV, WYAP, WXDR, WXHR, WZNC, Global Community Radio, The Bluegrass Jamboree, Bluegrass Planet Radio, Boston Free Radio, Bumps Radio, The Global Voice, Homelands Radio, North by South Radio, Radio Djerdan, Radio QDX, Radio Tucker, Salsburgh FM, Shout Radio, Southern Branch Bluegrass Radio, Sugar Country Radio, Sword Radio, WSSE Online, 920WON The Apple, and others. Thanks everyone. Please stay in touch and send me your thoughts!
