He's also the producer of Poetry Radio, co-hosted by Kirstin Hotelling Zona, where you can listen to poets read their own poems or favorites by others, accompanied by snippets of music, on the radio or via podcast!
I just spent the morning taping some poems with him, including some from the forthcoming Nocturnes!
Bruce is the guy who introduced me, via his Sunday night program, to the CD Eddi Reader Sings the Songs of Robert Burns, by playing the thrilling "Jamie, Come Try Me." It's one of my 3 favorites on the survey you take on this Acousticity page (refesh if it doesn't show up on the first try). You could win a guitar pick.
Happy to read your post this morning! I didn't know about Poetry Radio but I'm heading to the link to have a listen. Thank you and happy Friday!

It's a cool link, much to listen to, Sherry! (Today's taped poems won't be up for a while...music & intros need to be added!) The combo of music with poem is something I love, and it's sort of like what I do with art and poetry at EIL!
