Who was "Music Through the Night" announcer in the 80s?

7329 7270 Completely anal retentive kookdancing queen, Dickless Davie
7329 7270 the "irrelevaant" Ignoranus whined and
7329 7270 tholed like the antagonistic arsehole that he is:

Back in the 80's we had a commercial-free classical music station out
here in Seattle called KUOW (which sadly has long since switched to a
nearlly all-talk format).

Back in those days I was still young and energetic enough to be able to
sit up nearly all night working on projects while listening to the
radio. My program of choice was "Music Through the Night" which in the
mid to late 80s featured an announcer whose deliverly was so
understated that he seemed like a phantasm.

I believe the show was produced by Minnesota Public Radio and may have
been distributed by American Public Radio or Public Radio International
or something like that. I seem to recall noticing that the distributor
was not NPR.

Does anyone reading this recall that program, and more particularly,
the name of the announcer?

Is this the person who would occasionally insert weather forecasts for
selected portions of the country by saying something like "Prospects
for the central time zone. Snow. In the northern plains." with a very
slow delivery (his use of "prospects" was fairly frequent and rather
distinctive of him)? If so, the name that comes to mind right now is
Arthur Hayne (or Haine). I recall impersonating him once to get a
laugh from a colleague who was all too familiar with his slow delivery.

You always were a bit slow, Dickless. Butt what does that have to do
with ne.weather?

I keep getting email invitations to join some yahoogroup about weather -
nw.weather must be infested with spammers as well as trolls.

Ask not for whom the poast trolls, for it trolls for thee.

Merry Xmas, Bruce.

Here too now. A couple of people gave me money, which I'm going to spend at

Luxury! I bet Dickless went out and bought some shellac 78's so he
could digitise them and take out the pops on his 0S/2.

He'd better not try it on his ABBA recordings - there would be nothing left

Damn! That was going to be my next joke!

I don't even have a record player that can play old 78s. I bet Dickless

radio. My program of choice was "Music Through
the
Night"
which
in
the
mid to late 80s featured an announcer whose
deliverly
was
so
understated that he seemed like a phantasm.

I believe the show was produced by Minnesota
Public
Radio
and
may
have
been distributed by American Public Radio or
Public
Radio
International
or something like that. I seem to recall noticing
that
the
distributor
was not NPR.

Does anyone reading this recall that program, and
more
particularly,
the name of the announcer?

Is this the person who would occasionally insert
weather
forecasts
for
selected portions of the country by saying something
like
"Prospects
for the central time zone. Snow. In the northern
plains."
with
a
very
slow delivery (his use of "prospects" was fairly
frequent
and
rather
distinctive of him)? If so, the name that comes to
mind
right
now
is
Arthur Hayne (or Haine). I recall impersonating him
once to
get
a
laugh from a colleague who was all too familiar with
his
slow
delivery.

You always were a bit slow, Dickless. Butt what does
that
have
to
do
with ne.weather?

I keep getting email invitations to join some yahoogroup
about
weather -
nw.weather must be infested with spammers as well as
trolls.

Ask not for whom the poast trolls, for it trolls for thee.

Merry Xmas, Bruce.

Xmas is over, Bruce. Its already Boxing Day down here.

Here too now. A couple of people gave me money, which I'm
going
to
spend at
the boxing day sales - I want some new CDs.

Luxury! I bet Dickless went out and bought some shellac 78's
so he
could digitise them and take out the pops on his 0S/2.

LOL!

Why are you laughing? I'm sure Dickless will be completely serious
in
this endevour. I even bet that right now he off scouring the four
corners of the Earth looking for 78s.

Haven't most of the good 78s been remastered already?

If I ever hear a good Caruso or Melba, I'll let you know.

Thanks, but no thanks. The name is clarinet.fan, not opera.fan.

Do you think you'll find much good, pop-free clarinet music on old 78s?

Unlikely, escepially since I'm not even looking there. Most of the best
clarinet music was written long after the age of 78s.

Doesn't Woody Allen play the clarinet? Or am I thinking of Bill
K'lintoon?

Maybe Acker Bilk.

Acker Bilk and his Merry Ilk, Bruce?

Do mine eyes deceive me or did I just see an elk?
