These reviews were originally posted on my long-lived web forum which, after six great years, eventually went the way of the Dodo. However I there was too much great content for me to let it all die so the reviews have been moved to their new home here on TheDaddy.org.

I've had this playing from the internet for the past couple of weeks at work and my days have been filles with Led Zeppelin, The Who, Dire Straits, The Doors, Blue Oyster Cult, Bob Dylan, Fleetwood Mack, ACDC, Foo Fighters, Black Sabbath and many more. Not a single bad tune among them

-2 'cos they have quite a few adverts and their playlist can be a bit repetitive

saturday afternoon Radio 2 show where the Riv gets a musician and a comedian to jam with his studio band. lots of audience participation and some excellent impromptu renditions of a wide variety of songs. the comedy is bloody hilarious and everyone is clearly having the time of their lives.

this week it was phil jupitus and chris difford from squeeze. they re-worked Up the Junction to include references to Brokeback Mountain, the colour pink and winkles.

American radio station featuring the brilliant show "Morning Becomes Eclectic"

The show gets sesions by all the hotest bands arround when they are still fresh and waaay before Radio 1 gets its mits on them and best of all you can watch any of the hundreds of live sessions as real media over the web!

A great chillout station. It sticks to the relaxed songs rather than the trip-hop end of the chillout spectrum, which personally I'd have to say is good

Now I've got to admit, I'm not normally a huge fan of web radio. Especially the kind of stuff you normally get out there which you just know is being done by some teenage kid in his room somewhere. This however is one of those rare gems. It's a good chillout station to relax you. It's got about 70 days worth of music on repeat most of the time, so you ain't gonna get bored anytime soon, and every so often you get a true gem you'd never heard before, or something ever so slightly random, like "fur elise". Generally a great station!
