Finders Keepers Radio Show - Balearic Special

Finders Keepers Records

OK. If this show lands on target many of our listeners will be driving in the sun, strolling on a white rocky beach or recovering from last night's paella and that extra shot of herbs… So with that in mind i'm going to keep this short. Welcome to the long-mooted and strategically timed Finders Keepers Balearic Especial. A show that does exactly what it says on the tin. Made from strictly indigenous secret ingredients with little need for preservatives or technological enhancements. For our fourteenth feature-length attempt at "Making Global Sound Local" regular Finders Keepers office dwellers and co-hosts Andy Votel, Pete Mitchell, Doug Shipton and Lee Janda use their unique brand of wax-anorak-geekery, dubious dad jokes and mountainous mispronunciations to unveil two hours of lesser-spotted Balearic uber-classics. From the islands and islets that link Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza and Formentera and continue to unite folk, funk, farmers, free-thinkers, fine food and fauna, The Finders Keepers radio hosts unearth a small selection of mid-Med microgroove discs with a trail of crumbs pointing back to the days when the first hippie communes welcomed jazzers, artists, actors and activists to those mythical retreats over 50 years ago. Including our all of our regular rigged competitions (!) and magazine features Finders Keepers also invite special guest and Manc blues prophet Victor bros who regales stories of the early days on Ibiza in the presence of a pre-Velvet Underground Nico while namedropping Don Cherry and the first free music ensembles and DJs to hit those unknown shores in the early 1960s.
