Archive on 4: The First A&R Man

GRC#3 - Morning after the night before
And then this weeks Good Radio Club; for Analysis - Clever.com was plugged by the lovely Stephen Fry.
So our rather small “social listening” experiment became a rather large, trending, quite crowded, coming thick and fast at you, tweeting experiment. Blimey.

Ken Clarke's Jazz Greats - Charlie Parker

We had a couple of requests from users saying that radio/twitter time for them is actually during the day when they are at *work* so we’ve moved into lunchtime for our first of two choices next week; The first part of a new repeated series of Ken Clarke’s Jazz Greats
This is on: Radio 4 - Tuesday March...
Good Radio Club - the morning after
“Good Radio Club: Lots of people listen to the same radio show and Twitter about it. Nicely.” Paul Carvill, http://paulcarvill.com
A small experiment in ‘social listening’. We invited a small group of Radio 4 listeners to tune in to Radio 4’s brainiest show, Analysis, at 2030 on Thursday 26 February and to join a conversation about the programme’s topic – social housing – on Twitter. They were...

#goodradioclub Wow. That was a rush! Something I’ve never been able to say about #radio4 Analysis before, except @kenanmalik’s obviously :-)
davidsonhouston (Richard D-H) →
“in business” could be a good for another day. or “moral maze”! #goodradioclub
kenanmalik (Kenan Malik) →
#goodradioclub Should try this with something like the Moral Maze which is likely to create more friction

#goodradioclub The assertion that it’s not just investment in bricks and mortar is one that many seem to miss.
