Harmony Byrne returns to the show this week and once again leaves us reeling in her wake. This is our third track from this Australian musical behemoth and there is the promise of an album in the wings, with release scheduled for later in the year. Her plaintive vocal delivery on this track is enchanting and harks back to deep alt-country and Americana heritage, quite a feat for a native Aussie. We're backing Harmony Byrne to be massive news in the very near future, and remember, we did the same with Black Pumas and look at them now!

It's a Wax Time Special from Richard this week and moving away from tradition he opens and closes the show with two different artistes. Naturally, both are vintage vinyl spins live in the studio from deep in his personal vinyl collection. Secondly, Richard has a Record Box Classic of truly colossal proportions. Again, played off of the vinyl. We're beginning to wonder if Richard is going to exhaust his vinyl collection. However, we've been told it's forever growing and new additions feature on our Patreon channel, so to get involved head over there and become a patron of the show.

Austria's greatest songwriting son

Tobin stumbles upon inadvertently spinning a Record Box Classic of his own. Completely unintentionally he quickly realises that anything by Falco qualifies. We discover this tragic magical talent who was taken from us way before his time. Even now Falco remains Austria's most successful singer of all time. Now there's a gauntlet to throw down…

Wrapping up today's proceedings is the Gamble Brothers Band, we play their authentic sounding time travel special Tiki Bar. It proves something of a mistake as it fills Richard's head with ideas of his attractiveness and prowess. Both ridiculous figments of his lurid imagination. Pity him and his feelings of self importance whilst enjoying an instantly likeable musical romp.
