Things have been a bit slow here at Home Guard Headquarters recently, and to illustrate the point, here’s some good news reported a full six weeks late: our good friend Rodrigo de Sá seems to have taken a liking to our album opener Year Zero – so much so that he played it on his show! Right-click and “Save Target As…” to download episode 77 directly:

Those of you who have been taking notes will remember that Rodrigo produces the only podcast based in the Azores Islands. It’s still somewhat surreal to hear our own music being spoken about in Portuguese! You can keep up to date with the Cowboy Cantor programme at its official blog:
Meanwhile, double-combo-bonus points to Rodrigo for recommending the same song to the Association of Music Podcasting. Guess what? Guest presenter Kimmi was impressed enough to give it yet another airing! Here’s the direct link to show 214 of AMPed:

Many thanks as usual to all involved! Once things are back to whatever passes for normal in the world of The Home Guard, we look forward to resuming more regular updates – but do rest assured that we are spending some of our spare time fiddling about with new material. Oh, and see those HMV links in the previous post? Broken already due to their site relaunch, so disregard for now. Ho-hum.
