THANK YOU COUNTRY RADIO!

I’ve been under the radar this past year, so I am a bit gobsmacked (Aussie slang for “shocked”), deeply humbled and beyond thrilled to see my current radio single FIND MY LOVE @ # 1 on the Top 40 International Singles Chart this week. Thank you to all country music radio presenters who play my songs, Ross Allen @ Hillcrest Canada for promotional support and Joyce Ramgatie for her dedication to country music and the invaluable work she does to provide this chart, which is appreciated by artists and industry alike.
Congratulations to all artists, who come from diverse countries around the world, to make our global multicultural country music family represented on this chart. Thank you all, you’ve made my day!

Ciao for now, Clelia

"Paul Hazell's World Of Country"
Newsmail - Sunday April 30th 2017 - (Group 7 of 7) 9pm-midnight UK Time
Hi everyone,
Please join me from 9pm-midnight (UK time) on Sunday 30th April on www.uckfieldfm.co.uk for another three unpredictable hours of diverse country music chosen from recordings down through the decades, all kinds of country music and by artistes from anywhere in the world where good country music is recorded. Following the Ronnie Ronalde tribute shows over the Easter Weekend (which were extremely well received – thank you for your support) it is back to good ole country music for this weekend’s show.
 
In tonight’s show you will hear a beautiful Australian bush ballad by singer songwriters Dianne Lindsay and Peter Simpson, a track from the new album by emerging western songstress Paula Erlene, the golden voice of Slim Whitman, plus many, many more including Cajun and bluegrass. We musically remember the legend that was Merle Haggard, a year after he passed away and there will be tracks from USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, mainland Europe, South Africa and Japan.
 
You can email me in the studio on studio@uckfieldfm.co.uk and can join in the chat room to exchange typed comments about the music with listeners around the world. Just click on “webcams and chat” from the Uckfield FM website. So that is Sunday evening in the UK, Sunday afternoon in the USA and Canada and early Monday morning in Australia and New Zealand.

 http://www.diamondback-records.com
Diamondback Records is one of the major compilation services for independent country music songwriters and artists, providing airplay in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and independent US radio. Country music fans in all of these areas of the world enjoy traditional country songs, and tune in to the dedicated DJs who play our songs. Feedback is provided by DJs who send their playlists to us, as well as sending them to Joyce Ramgatie, who then creates and publishes weekly and monthly charts, so we can assess our own rankings along side of the hundreds of other independent writers and artists who submit their songs for airplay.

GLENN ERICKSON

Having already begun providing us with monthly charts as well as the weekly ones that we review every week, Joyce is expanding her service to include a CD/Singles review page… I’m not exactly sure how it will work, but my understanding is that it will let us know whenever someone writes a comment about a single song or a complete CD.
As our friend, Jim Flynn, said… we are so fortunate to have a “movement” for independent writers and artists, where we can get our songs heard by millions of country music fans all over the world, facilitated by so many dedicated DJs that play them on their shows; and then to have a person like Joyce Ramgatie, who publishes weekly and monthly charts so we can evaluate our own place among the hundreds of other independent writers and artists who create, perform and put their songs out there for the fans to hear.
Major Nashville country music artists, publishers, record labels and radio have put together a “club" that most of us will never break into; but our own independent “club” provides such great opportunities for us. We really need to be very thankful for all of the wonderful DJs and Joyce, who complete the package for us. I know you all agree.

Newsmail - Sunday July 10th 2016 - (Group 7 of 7) 9pm-midnight UK Time

THIS SUNDAY’S SHOW
You can join me this Sunday on www.uckfieldfm.co.uk from 9pm-midnight UK time (that’s Sunday afternoon in USA and Canada and early Monday morning in Australia and New Zealand). As usual the show will be fast moving and varied and will include a tribute to bluegrass legend Ralph Stanley, the last of the first generation of bluegrass players, who passed away recently. After decades in the business, Ralph suddenly found himself idolized by a new generation of youngsters after they heard his music in the award-winning movie “O Brother Where Art Thou”. Tonight’s tribute will trace his career, originally as one part of the Stanley brothers duo and then as a solo artiste and leader of the Clinch Mountain Boys.
There will also be recent releases from modern day country stars the traditionally styled Shavonne Aliphon from New Zealand and Lorraine Chavana from Texas, great rockabilly country from Wayne “The Train” Hancock and Hank Williams III, an exciting new name to watch out for, Kim Allen who is so traditional sounding it could be years ago, plus the usual array of rarities, new releases and even a short batch of yodel songs to satisfy all you yodel fans who keep asking for more! So if you like your country with a lilt, a swing, plenty of fiddle, steel, banjo and dobro – then this is the place for you.
The chat room will be open at www.uckfieldfm.co.uk as always and you can email Paul in the studio during the show on studio@uckfieldfm.co.uk . Everyone’s welcome – see you between 9pm and midnight UK time.”

Music
By J.C High Eagle

This is one of the saddest parts of the change story. The music industry is dying a slow death. Not just because of illegal downloading. It's the lack of innovative new music being given a chance to get to the people who would like to hear it. Greed and corruption is the problem. The record labels and the radio conglomerates are simply self-destructing.
Over 40% of the music purchased today is "catalogue items," meaning traditional music that the public is familiar with. Older established artists. This is also true on the live concert circuit. To explore this fascinating and disturbing topic further, check out the book, "Appetite for Self-Destruction" by Steve Knopper, and the video documentary, "Before the Music Dies."

Paul Hazell's World Of Country

This Sunday sees another “World Of Country” so I invite everyone to join me on www.uckfieldfm.co.uk from 9pm-midnight (UK time) on Sunday evening (that’s Sunday afternoon in USA and Canada and early Monday morning in Australia and New Zealand) for 3 hours of incredibly varied country music including western swing, honkytonk, story songs, string band, bluegrass, folk-country, etc.
Recordings this Sunday span across eight decades and there are tracks from USA, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, mainland Europe and more. Amongst the artistes you will hear are the singing cowboy Gene Autry, some of the best western swing orientated country music today from the unlikely source of rock star Cindy Lauper, whose new album is country all the way! Then there is traditional country gospel from Connie Smith, a western flavoured number from the Hawaiian style band The Kilima Hawaiians and a great traditional country favourite from New Zealand’s Graeme McCardle, just for tasters.
The chat room will be open as always so that you can exchange typed views with listeners around the world. Just click on the “Webcams” link near the top left of the Uckfield FM home screen. You can email me during the show on studio@uckfieldfm.co.uk

Clelia Adams  Hello friends,
A big thank you to Country Radio in Europe/UK/USA/Australia for the airplay support of my new radio single My Baby’s Love (Jessie’s Song).
The song has quite a story behind it. A burst appendix in 2009 put me in hospital for a lengthy stretch of time. My trusty transistor radio (yes the old school kind) kept me sane throughout the seemingly endless nights. Unknown to me, my daughter Jessie, a gospel singer and the music minister at her church in Melbourne, had just released her new radio single to radio. What are the chances of per uplifting gospel song being played on the radio that very night? More like Divine intervention me thinks. I’m thankful that she sang me back from the brink, gave me new hope and this beautiful song. My previous single The Captain and the Gypsy stayed at the #1 position for 6 weeks on the Australian Country Tracks chart, and #7 on the Netherlands chart.
My greatest appreciation to all who continue to play my music on their radio programs, come to support me at my live shows, take my albums home and let me know how much they love my music. I feel so very blessed. Thank you all!
MY BABY’S LOVE (Jessie’s Song) available to country radio on HILLCREST 80, track 7 (Europe) www.hillcrestcd.com CRS 189, track 10 (Australia) www.crspublicity.com.au
