Welcome to the RPM Seven Day Soundtrack, week ending Friday 26th September 2025...and with very welcome visits from two old RPM stalwarts, here's this week's choice cuts...

David -

"Greetings to all. My 3 this week..."

Jackie -

"The Pentangle bass player died this week aged 86. Here are a couple of songs he played on."

Tony -

"Here are my choices for this week with best wishes to everybody - nights are drawing in! ("Indeed...so best to cosy up with a warming edition of RPM." Tim)

Piers -

"By coincidence, in an attempt to avoid duplication last week Jayne and I both chose to post a track by ‘The Fleet Foxes’! This is the tune that we both thought the other would post as last Thursday we heard it played on Billy Bennington’s own Dulcimer. Richard Blake who has been given the instrument by Billy’s step granddaughter played a set on it at the Crown in Fakenham. It was the first time that ‘The Barford Angel’s’ Dulcimer has been played in public since the death of Billy in 1985. He was the last person to tune it and remarkably it is still nearly perfectly tuned to relative 346htz pitch Just as he left it. 

It was a grand performance too."

Nina -

"Hi folks. Here's my 3."

Philip -

"I've been lounging around most of the week recovering from something nasty I think I picked up in school, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to poke my head around the metaphorical door and say "Hi." ("Hi, Philip...good to hear from you." Tim)

Here are three artists I've been impressed by in recent months."

Jayne -

"Greetings RPMers and thanks for your tracks; here are mine for this week."

Dave -

"Hi RPMers... yet an end of another month approaches. Here’s my 3 tunes for this week."

John -

"Hello RPMers, I hope you've all had a great week. It was good to meet up with Tim, our noble helmsman, for a walk and a chat. Excellent.

Here are three tracks that I've enjoyed this week..."

Tim -

"This time, it's unintentionally three rootsy numbers..."

"...a tune attributed to Shetland fiddler John Scollay...although The Session.Org states it's Irish, as they would,...and I'm actually playing the tune with musicians for an English Morris side called Green Dragon Morris at the East Anglian Traditional Music Day. Here though, it's almost given the American Old Time treatment..."

"....and here's another song from the Falkirk youngsters..."

"...and lastly, my favourite Sonny Curtis song which was a tough choice between two recordings; The Clash...or these lad's folkier interpretation..."

'Til Next Time...
