I love all types of music, hence the feast in the title of this program. I also love so much of the new music that has been coming out over the past few years, across a range of different genres. Given that the recipe is absolutely brand new, I thought that it might be interesting to pick out some of my favorite tracks from 2015 through 2019. (I'm saving my choices from 2020 for a later show)
I feature some of my favorites from pop, alternative, blues, r&b, dance, country, and jazz. But we live in a genre busting time and the music reflects this. There are so many artists - famous and unknown - doing so many innovative or interesting things. And for me, melody is back as it was melodic hooks that first got me as a 6 year old child. It is what keeps me listening to music 60 years later, hours every day.
The last song by Richard Hawley is one of my favorites, is dedicated to my wife and got a little cut off on the stream. Here is a great video version of it for all you romantics

A couple of weeks ago I was talking to Sue at Duck Creek Farm where I pick up a weekly box of produce through a CSA. (click the link to get to their website). We were sharing recipes and I was telling her about this radio program. She said "Why don't I do a recipe using our produce and then we can share each other's information on our website". So I went home that night and came up with this recipe, influenced by the contents of my box
I like the idea of having a North African flavoured lamb stew that was fused with some Western stew concepts, like roasted vegetables and pot barley. This is the result of this mix and it is really great. Thanks Sue for the inspiration. I served it on the side with what I’m calling Harissa greens (see instructions below)
Step 1 - Chop and roast root vegetables
Step 2 - Braise Harissa Greens
Step 3 - Chop and Fry Vegetables & Meat
Step 4 - Add spices and liquid for braising
Step 5 - Complete the stew
