Scottish radio

On 4th June 2006 Scottish Storytelling Radio went on the Net. There are two linked stations. STORYTELLING IN SCOTLAND, currently with over 4 hours of
storytelling from 10 Scots tellers, best listened to on broadband. This will be added to, but not themed or with sequences that change often. SCOTTISH STORYTELLING, non broadband, accessible through most modems. On Scottish Storytelling at present the 2 hours plus of stories are drawn from the tales on Storytelling in Scotland. But we will include other storytellers and projects soon, we'll change sequences and create themed 'shows.' First ideas include tales from Alec Williamson of Ross-shire in Scots and in Gaelic, and from the School of Scottish Studies archives double CD. 1950s recordings of Davie Stewart telling burker tales, and of Jeannie Robertson telling Alan Lomax's fortune. A 2004 collaboration between three of Scotland's composers and a storyteller. Scots kids telling stories.
Give the stations a try, tell us how you get on and what you think of it. On my 5 year old steamdriven computer even the 'non broadband' version wheezes and cuts out. On the newer laptop both versions work fine. The stations are on Live 365 with thousands of other net stations. It is
dead cheap - hence the intrusive adverts. To get there, either try the following links
