Deborah's theme, Deborah Conway and Deborah Harry 12/06/2013

Last night on "A Mixed Bag with Chris B" on 93.7 Edge FM in the Bega Valley our theme was "Deborah's", mainly focusing on two of my favourite Deborah's - Deborah Harry and Deborah Conway.  On Mother's day earlier this year, I was lucky enough to attend Deborah Conway & Willy Ziggier live at Candelo Town Hall playing songs from their new album "Stories of Ghosts".  It was a fabulous night of music with a very enthusiastic Candelo crowd.  Deborah Conway and Willy Ziggier were both in excellent voice and Willy Ziggier played an array of instruments, displaying his versatility and amazing talent!  I can absolutely recommend this live show if you get the chance to check it out!

It was great to spin a few tunes on a Mixed Bag from the new album "Stories of Ghosts", and from my favourite older albums, "String of Pearls" and "Bitch Epic" mixed in with quite a few songs from the band "Blondie" with Deborah Harry on vocals.
I was lucky enough to be able to have a quick chat by phone with Deborah Conway while she was waiting to board a plane at Sydney Airport.  Here is the link to the interview (sometimes the sound quality isn't that great, so apologies for that):-

Am trying to decide what next week's theme should be.  Have just watched the documentary, "Searching for Sugarman about Rodriguez, so thought a Rodriguez theme could be good at some point.  I am also tossing up the idea of "Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll", but can't decide at the moment.  Will keep you posted!
