The Outpost on 2SER is one of the great institutions of Australian public radio, and that’s saying something because Australian public radio as we are so fortunate to have it is some of the best in the world, and so I was delighted to appear on air yesterday with host Vinny Ramone to talk about Suburban Songbook and beyond – or rather, doubly delighted since it was Vinny’s 700th show! which of course is just another vote for the show’s significance and on-going relevance. And so thanks Vinny, was great to be there, we had a great chat and you said yourself we could have gone on all day and it just would have been even more fun; anyway, you can here to listen to the show, and copied following is the playlist we talked around, which opens on a few things reflective of The Outpost’s standard global view after which, when I flopped in front of the interviewee’s mic, it shifts to all-Australian which is reflective of what Suburban Songbook is all about - great Australian songs and songwriting!
