Hope you're enjoying the bright if a bit chilly weather this weekend.

The musical accompaniment for the latter part looks a bit like this;

A celebration of Herbie Hancock's 70th birthday with two tunes
from the man himself, and two covers.

Brand new soulful house by D-Moov with a good take
on the Isley's "For The Love Of You".

A ska classic by Prince Buster later "borrowed" by The Specials.

And the year in this week's Silver Soul Plus 10 is 1989 with
instrumental smooth jazz from The Rippingtons, and a house
lifter from The Beatmasters.

It's going to be constantly active throughout.

Listen in!

After a well deserved Easter break I'm back with plenty of
new offerings;

A new album for April where each week I'll be playing two tunes
from Erykah Badu's "New Amerykah Volume 2".

A couple of similar sounding tunes from Eddie Hendricks and Alicia Keys.

A 00s house classic from Hardsoul makes up this weeks Kickback Track.

And the Silver Soul feature this week goes back to 1988 with
The Pasadenas and Matt Bianco.

If the weather's still good, listen in the garden it will be a lot
more pleasurable experience than what I will have.

Well, this is bizzarre!

I did have a show last night, but for the first hour and 20 minutes
I was minus a computer playout so I had to adlib by playing random
stuff off of CD and was too flustered to take note in what I played.

I'll do my best to get it on the site as soon as I can but
the show will be back to normal this week with two more
tracks from Papik's "Rhythm Of Life" album for March 2010,
and 1984 will be profiled in Silver Soul Plus 10.

Until then, use the week wisely!

Plenty of exciting ones on offer this week;

Following last week's Florence remix, a vastly underrated duet with
Dizzee Rascal and Lily Allen.

This week's Kickback Track is a special remix of The Temptations'
"Papa Was A Rolling Stone" by Jazzy Jeff and Pete Kuzma.

We head back to 1982 in the Silver Soul Plus 10 with a couple
of lesser heard tunes from Stevie Wonder and Patrice Rushen.

Plus music on offer from Sunshine Anderson, Leela James, The Specials,
and the final two tracks from February's profiled album
"The Sea" by Corinne Bailey-Rae.

You'd better be listening.

It's the first show of Feburary 2010 and I'll be kicking off the with
the first two tracks of the month's Album Profile, Corinne Bailey-Rae
and "The Sea".

It's a nice chilled offering and will ease us through the rather speedy month.

I'll also have tunes from Spyro Gyra, Zero 7, early 90s rap from Monie Love
and a mash up that's been doing the rounds for a couple of months now,
featuring Marvin Gaye and Kool And The Gang.

There's all the usual features as well including The Kickback Track, Separated
At Birth and this week's Silver Soul Plus 10 heads back to 1979 on our ongoing
journey over 35 years.

It all happens this Sunday from 6pm. csrfm.com

Herbie Hancock and Shalamar.

Plus tunes from The Bird and The Bee, Spyro Gyra, and the reguar features

Show Preview 10.01.10

2010-01-06T10:48:00.002Z

This week things go back to normal, and regular features make a return
including the Kickback Track, and The Wordless Wonder to name a few.

There's also a brand new album being profiled for January, that being
the recent release from Italian jazz performer Mario Biondi and "If".

A slightly more chilled set of tunes this week in places including Lemon Jelly,
The Floaters, and some superb mid 80s Spyro Gyra when they were at their best.

As well as the latest offering from Roisin Murphy making good use
of orchestra hits throught.

And there's a brand new feature to the show called "Silver Soul", where
each week I shall be playing two of the best soulful tracks from a chosen year
working my way up from 1985 (when I was born) all the way up to 2010.

But there's a twist to the item, and all will be revealed on the show this Sunday!

Listen in from 8pm.

A Premature Break?

2009-12-18T18:30:00.005Z

No I haven't lost my Christmas spirit.

But the security guards at the UKC campus have, deciding to lock the building up where CSR is based, for the next two Sundays.

Pre-recording would be an option but I've no idea when the studios are free to do so due to the busyness of it all, and the struggle it takes me to travel from my house far away from the hill where it all happens.

So with that in mind the show that went out last Sunday was the final one of 2009 and I'll hopefully be back on either the 3rd of the 10th of January where I will be jumping on the bandwagon of listing my 20 favourite tunes
of the decade.

However in the Blam Jam manner of things, it will contain different set
of offerings as I'm sure we all want to get away from the crazy hysteria
of what many would describe as not the most defining decade.

But in terms of colourful music, there's been a lot of good stuff, oh yes.

I obviously haven't mentioned what I'll be including as that would give it away
but hopefully the previous two playlists may gave you an idea, without directly lifting any tracks from them.

Hopefully by 2010 I'll be able to talk better than I'm writing now.

Have a really fun Christmas and hopeful New Year.

Music on offer includes;

Superb mid 90s soul from Raw Stylus
Early 00s brit-hip-hop from Ty
Winter escapism with some beautiful bossa from Basia
Brand new stuff from Alicia Keys new album
And a fantastic uplifting house anthem from Michelle Weeks

Not forgetting two more tracks from December's Album Profile from Noel McKoy, as well as another Kickback Track, and two tunes which I reckon were Separated At Birth.

It's all happening between 8-10pm this Sunday, CSR 97.4 FM.

A Warm Welcome

2009-12-01T20:17:00.007Z

Well, this is what you could call a work in progress.

I've decided to set up my own little home for my new show commencing on CSR FM 97.4 this coming Sunday and also online at csrfm.com.

It's basically just a little calling point for me to provide you with show previews tracklistings etc so it's nothing new.

I'd best introduce myself to those who haven't heard of me before, I'm Robin, the title of the show comes from my surname "Blamires" (pronounced Blay-myers) but everyone else pronounces it phonetically so "Blam Jam" seemed like the ideal title.

I used to present a show on the award winning Smoke Radio for four years, where I played a selection of soul and rare groove tunes but I hope that this new offering for the silver award winning CSR will give me a chance to broaden my horizons.

I'll still be playing stuff such as Earth Wind and Fire, Jamiroquai, The Sunburst Band, but I hope to blend them in with quirkier offbeat stuff such as Calvin Harris, Florence and The Machine, Skint and Demoralised etc as well as
melodic hip hop (Roots Manuva, Ed Solo) and even a bit of easy listening and lounge.

It's a bloody mish mash in all honesty.

I hope to get a page on the official CSR website pretty soon, and possibly a Facebook group and all sorts of stuff.

In the meantime I'll use this blog to give you an idea of what sort of things I have on offer.

The first show will include tunes such as

A gem from the genius that is Leroy Burgess and the Universal Robot Band,
A new stunner from the Reel People
Amazing loungey stuff from Count Indigo
We head back to the late 80s with a "timeless" offering from Shakatak
Earth Wind and Fire join forces with Family Guy's Cleveland Brown
and we get a bit raucous with the three stringed genius that is Seasick Steve

Features will include the Album Profile where every month I will play two tracks each week of a chosen LP.
For December '09 it's Noel McKoy and his new solo offering "Brighter Day".

There's also the Kickback Track where I play an extended tune from back in the day without talking over it.

And the Wordless Wonder which is an instrumental gem of mine and possibly your choosing as the show starts to find it's feet.

I'll also be chatting about the James Taylor Quartet gig that's taking place at the Farmhouse in Canterbury this Saturday.

Any suggestions for tracks to play on future shows can be made via the comments section of the blog and via the CSR e-mail when I get that up and running.

I'd love to hear your suggestions.

Overall I hope you enjoy what I have to offer and hopefully the show will fulfill it's aim of bringing the musical colour to Canterbury.
