Back By Popular Demand… Ben Folds Five

Well, I really didn’t expect to be doing this again. But I do appreciate the email I received from a few of you, saying that you’d like to hear the interviews even if I had to delete the songs.
Gina, who I believe is in the Netherlands, wrote “It’s for the contents of the interview, the things that are being said, people tune in i guess… Hearing the music is cool too, but we can play those ourselves.. Perhaps you could delete the music but show in a message what songs were played… If you have more interviews in stock that are worth listening to, i’d say go for it… … And yes, listening to interviews isn’t any less attractive if there’s no music in it…”
And from David in Santa Monica… one of the old-time KSCA listeners, “Keep doing the podcast if you can; interviews, stories, whatever. You always had us as soon as we heard you, the music was only a fraction of the attraction.”
The kind words mean more than you know… So, let’s give this another shot… I will let you know which songs were played, so you can find them and plug them in yourself, if you so choose. (And perhaps a kindly worded email might get me to share the live version with you!)
So, today we travel back to October of 1995… the very first Los Angeles radio appearance by Ben Folds Five….
