Welcome to the RPM Record Club Seven Day Soundtrack, week ending Friday 29th September 2023, the autumn onion and garlic planting edition....so after a stretch on the allotment, it's time for a brew and over to...

Nina -

"Hi folks. Hope you're all well. Here's my 3...cheers!"

Jean -

"As I’m getting on a plane again soon for the first time in years and travelling abroad, my theme has to be connected to a cold place. Guess where I’m going..."

Piers -

"Three old ones. 

Earlier in the week I read a quote from a 1950s school book which read... “On my journey I didn’t know where I was going, when I got there I didn’t know where I was, and when I came back I didn’t know where I’d been” -  'Christopher Columbus'. 

Which coincided with a report that Paul Simon has a new album out. He wrote some pretty good songs over the years."

Tony -

"Here's my 3 for the week before I head to Kent for the weekend.

Best wishes to all, hoping we all enjoy the last of this slightly wonky Indian summer."

David -

"Hi, firstly a big thanks to all of you RPMers for letting me join in and the tremendous variety and quality of music you have all exposed me to. Knocked me right out of my comfort zone for sure !

For the past couple of weeks I have been tunnel and ferry hopping around the beautiful Faroe Islands so my music has been limited to streaming where I could get free Internet. Its been a great chance to catch up on past RPM lists. 

This weekend the free festival in Golden Gate Park Hardly Strictly Bluegrass returns for it's 22nd year. I was lucky enough to see the man who gave the festival to the people of San Francisco (and beyond) Warren Hellman play with Jimmie Dale Gilmore a few short weeks before he died in 2011. And here are 3 more shows I saw over the years."

Dave -

"Hi everyone, hope all is good with you. Here’s my 3 this week."

Philip -

"Over the last few weeks I have been re-watching on DVD the excellent American/Canadian co-production "Hell On Wheels" (filmed in Alberta), and I am about 2/3 of the way through season 2. It's one of a number of significant revisionist Westerns made for TV this century, including the excessively sweary "Deadwood," the superb "The Son" (based on Philipp Meyer's brilliant source novel with Mr. Meyer's full involvement as a writer and co-producer), and the recent British contribution starring Emily Blunt, "The English."

Thus this week I have chosen the theme music from "Hell On Wheels" and two songs included on the soundtrack."

John -

"Hi Everyone. As I mentioned last week, I was off to Burnham Deepdale for four days of music, poetry, beer, food and good company at the increasingly wonderful Deepdale Festival. A great weekend in superb surroundings with a fantastic atmosphere - good vibes all round! My three for this week are from acts I particularly enjoyed, but I will also give honourable mentions to the following who were also thoroughly entertaining: Kathryn Williams and Band, Chris Cleverly, Good Habits, Michele Stoddart, Anto Morra, Mishra, Lewis Buxton (Toast Poetry), Brooke Telling, Robert Vincent (and his band) and Chad Mason."

Jayne -

"Just two from me this week. The first by an artist we caught at the Deepdale Festival on Sunday — a really lovely day, made even better by catching up with John of this parish. The second I heard performed acapella in a pub. With best wishes to you all."

Tim -

"Here's three that caught my attention this week..."

'Til Next Time...
