Indeed welcome to SS episode 16 for the 22 th August 2008 –
AND NOW FOR A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
Now you may have heard or you may have noticed the URL change that our hosting company Podshow is now called Mevio. This change is filtering through the Podshow properties and the UK is still at BTPodshow.com with redirects to Mevio.Com as required. So you'll be seeing the Mevio moniker more and more.
Now back to the show.
The young girl sat transfixed by the man playing the guitar in front of her. His Irish lilt and the dramatic story that unfolded minute by minute through the song he was singing, gripped her soul. Music can do that, she thought, and noted the lyrics down as soon as she could. Being an budding singer she taught herself the tune and sang the song to folk club audiences all around England. The song became a great hit on the club circuit and only years later did the young lady learn that the words that she noted were not those that had been sung all those years before.
The song that Kate Rusby sang together with Kathryn Roberts she titled “Ned on the Hill” the original was in fact “Ned OF the Hill”. This story, that I recall Kate telling to me, was brought to my mind buy the first of four great tracks IMHO from this shows special selection. I'd love to play Kate Rusby, but I don't have any of her music Podsafe yet, but good news is that the artists I feature today have embraced the tubes, seen what great things come from doing so and have made their music Safe for Podcasters, and are continueing to release new stuff. The tracks today are all fresh up on the PMN at http://music.mevio.com

Translation: Spanish » EnglishHola, soy Rosa Delia Rodriguez. Nacì en Gran Canaria, llevo toda la vida ligada a la mùsica, primero como uno de mis hobbies y ya con 20 se convirtio en mi profesiòn. He cantado de todo: copla, rancheras, baladas.... todo esto en Andalucia hasta que en el 95 despues de haber vivido alli por unos años vuelvo a mi tierra, (Gran Canaria) donde canto para españoles, cumbias, merengue, salsa...y para el turismo extranjero por lo que empiezo a hacerlo tambien en otros idiomas, sobretodo en ingles. En el 2001 vengo a vivir a Holanda para casarme con un chico holandes estupendo, con el que tengo dos hijos por los que dejè la mùsica aparcada un tiempo y precisamente por ellos me ha vuelto a picar el gusanillo y ahora intento hacerme un hueco aqui, en esta tierra en la que tanto se nos quiere a los españoles. Espero les guste mi pagina que entre otras cosas esta hecha con mucho cariño de la mano de un fan y amigo al que le debo agradecer su esfuerzo y al que le envio un abrazo. Muchos saludos desde Holanda.

In 2001 I came to live in Holland to marry a guy Dutch great, with which I have two sons by that dejè the music aside some time and precisely because I had them returned to the sting gusanillo and now tries to make a hole here, in this land where we both want the Spaniards.
