Chris T-T’s Midnight Campfire show #30 was broadcast on Juice on Wed 25 Mar. It was one of my favourites, partly for the music, partly for a couple of silly moments. Especially the final run of tracks was lush to play out on loud studio speakers. Here’s the LISTEN ONLINE link and here’s the playlist. Eat this, every other folk show ever…
