Asha Bhosle

**Asha Bhosle** (Hindi: आशा भोंसले) (née Mangeshkar; born 8 September 1933) is an Indian playback singer and entrepreneur. She is best known for her playback singing in Hindi cinema, although she has a wider repertoire. Bhosle's career started in 1943 and has spanned over seven decades. She has done playback singing for over a thousand movies. In addition, she has recorded several private albums and participated in numerous solo concerts in India and abroad. In 2006, Asha Bhosle stated that she had sung over 12,000 songs, a figure repeated by several other sources. In 2011, she was officially acknowledged by the Guinness Book of World Records as the most recorded artist in music history. The Government of India honoured her with the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 2000 and the Padma Vibhushan in 2008. Bhosle is the sister of playback singer Lata Mangeshkar and belongs to the prominent Mangeshkar family.

Renowned for her soprano voice range and often credited for her versatility, Bhosle's work includes film music, pop, ghazals, bhajans, traditional Indian classical music, folk songs, qawwalis, and Rabindra Sangeet. Apart from Hindi, she has sung in over 20 Indian and foreign languages. In 2013, she made her debut as an actress in the film Mai, and received critical acclaim for her performance.

## Links to Kershaw

Kershaw played a track from the singer in 1998 when she sang the track Rangeela Re for A.R. Rahman's Rangeela album and movie soundtrack. He also played another track from her called Ina Mina Dika, from the Rough Guides compilation album in 2003.

Bhosle also influenced one of Kershaw's favourite bands, Cornershop, who released the song 'Brimful Of Asha' in 1997, which was a tribute to the singer, ending up at the top of the UK singles chart a year later.

Great Journeys

**Great Journeys** was a travel documentary series featuring writers and performers travelling to different countries around the world. It was first broadcast on BBC2 in 1989 and a second series was broadcast in 1994.

## Links to Kershaw

Andy Kershaw travelled with Billy Bragg from Bolivia to Chile. From the cyanide-weeping rocks of the Potosi mines, along a trail strewn with strange myths, customs and cultures, Andy and Billy trace a route to Chile and the seaport of Arica. Crossing this spectacular Andean landscape they meet the remote high-altitude Indians. As they witness the passion of ritual and the panoply of fiesta Billy responds in song, offering his own kind of music to a deeply moved but uncomprehending community.

The episode was called Silver Tracks and was first broadcast on 15th December 1989.

Folk Connections: Cecil Sharp's Appalachian Trail

## Show

Name
* Folk Connections: Cecil Sharp's Appalachian Trail

Station
* BBC Radio Three

YYYY-MM-DD
* 2016-01-31

Comments
* In the spring of 1916, English folk song collector Cecil Sharp set out on a voyage to America. This was the first of three trips exploring what he saw as a treasure trove of English folk music, brought over by the American pioneers, and still sung by the mountain people of the Appalachians. Andy Kershaw follows Cecil Sharp's Appalachian Trail through Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee, hearing some of the songs he collected in specially-recorded sessions with contemporary singers. The 1600 songs that Cecil Sharp collected represent the bedrock of Appalachian music, songs which gave rise to the styles of old-time, country and bluegrass.
* Artists featured include singers Phil Jamison, Sheila Kay Adams, Dom Flemons and Gillian Welch with David Rawlings. Extracts from the diaries and writings of Cecil Sharp and his assistant Maud Karpeles read by Brian Protheroe and Nicola Ferguson.

Peter Gabriel

**Peter Brian Gabriel** (born 13 February 1950) is an English musician, singer, songwriter, record producer and activist. He rose to fame as the original lead singer of the progressive rock band Genesis. After leaving Genesis in 1975, he launched a successful solo career with "Solsbury Hill" as his first single. His 1986 album, So, is his best-selling release and is certified triple platinum in the UK and five times platinum in the U.S. The album's most successful single, "Sledgehammer", won a record nine MTV Awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards and, according to a report in 2011, it was MTV's most played music video of all time.

## Links to Kershaw

Gabriel has been a champion of world music for much of his career. He co-founded the WOMAD festival in 1982 and has continued to focus on producing and promoting world music through his Real World Records label. Both Real World and WOMAD have had records and live events broadcast with Kershaw presenting and playing records. Kershaw even interviewed Peter Gabriel for BBC Radio One's Real World Recording Week documentary in 1992.

In 2005, Kershaw criticised Bob Geldof on the lack of African artists for the Live 8 event and suggested in the Independent newspaper that the event could have had Peter Gabriel and Robert Plant performing as representatives of western rock stars, who were supporters of African music. [1]

Otis Rush

**Otis Rush Jr.** (April 29, 1934 – September 29, 2018) was an American blues guitarist and singer-songwriter. His distinctive guitar style featured a slow-burning sound and long bent notes. With qualities similar to the styles of other 1950s artists Magic Sam and Buddy Guy, his sound became known as West Side Chicago blues and was an influence on many musicians, including Michael Bloomfield, Peter Green and Eric Clapton.

Rush was left-handed and played as such; however, his guitars were strung with the low E string at the bottom, upside-down from typical guitarists. He often played with the little finger of his pick hand curled under the low E for positioning. It is widely believed that this contributed to his distinctive sound. He had a wide-ranging, powerful tenor voice.

## Links to Kershaw

One of Kershaw's many favourite blues musicians, the artist did a session for his show in 1994, although after 2005, his music didn't seem to be played by AK on his radio programmes.

John Lee Hooker

**John Lee Hooker** (August 22, 1912 or 1917 – June 21, 2001) was an American blues singer, songwriter, and guitarist. The son of a sharecropper, he rose to prominence performing an electric guitar-style adaptation of Delta blues. Hooker often incorporated other elements, including talking blues and early North Mississippi Hill country blues. He developed his own driving-rhythm boogie style, distinct from the 1930s–1940s piano-derived boogie-woogie. Hooker was ranked 35 in *Rolling Stone*'s 2015 list of 100 greatest guitarists.

Some of his best known songs include "Boogie Chillen'" (1948), "Crawling King Snake" (1949), "Dimples" (1956), "Boom Boom" (1962), and "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" (1966). Several of his later albums, including *The Healer* (1989), *Mr. Lucky* (1991), *Chill Out* (1995), and *Don't Look Back* (1997), were album chart successes in the U.S. and UK. *The Healer* (for the song "I'm In The Mood") and *Chill Out* (for the album) both earned him Grammy wins as well as *Don't Look Back*, which went on to earn him a double-Grammy win for Best Traditional Blues Recording and Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals (with Van Morrison).

## Links to Kershaw

Andy Kershaw often played John Lee Hooker's music on his show and many musicians that AK played were influenced by the musician, especially Ali Farka Toure, who was often called the African version of John Lee Hooker.

In 1993, Andy Kershaw presented a radio documentary about the life of John Lee Hooker for the Mr Lucky programme on BBC Radio One.

After Hooker died, Kershaw paid tribute to the musician on his 29 June 2001 show by playing his Bus Station Blues track, which was recorded at the Newport Folk Festival in the early 60's.

Radio Aire

**Radio Aire** was an Independent Local Radio station, serving Leeds and West Yorkshire between September 1981 and August 2020. Radio Aire originally broadcast on 362 metres medium wave (828 kHz AM) and 94.6 VHF but was moved to 96.3 FM (VHF) in 1986.

Radio Aire's studios were based on Burley Road, overlooking Kirkstall Road next to ITV Yorkshire's headquarters - it was the first Independent Local Radio station to have purpose-built studios. In the late 1980s, the studios were used for The James Whale Radio Show, which was a late night TV show, broadcast on ITV, Radio Aire and Red Rose Radio.

On 17 July 1990, Radio Aire split frequencies, forming Aire FM and Magic 828. In 1992, the name was changed to Radio Aire FM and then, 96.3 Aire FM in 1995. A change of format in 1996 saw another station name change to The New 96.3 Aire FM before The New was dropped in 1998. By March 2001, Radio Aire had reverted to its original name.

By the time of the station's closure, most of Radio Aire's output consisted of networked programming - with local output reduced to a four-hour breakfast show on weekdays, alongside hourly local news bulletins, peak-time traffic updates and advertising.

## Links to Kershaw

Andy Kershaw's first job in broadcasting was for Radio Aire after university, which was also the place where his sister, Liz Kershaw, worked at. Andy did two programmes for the station, a late night alternative show and a weekly blues programme. It was also the place where he discovered Billy Bragg's debut LP, Life's A Riot With Spy Vs Spy, after a worker there discarded it in the bin. In November 1983, he was made redundant from the station and worked for Billy Bragg as his tour manager.
