Do you think that someone needs to vet the material before it airs?

UKCountryRadio.com offers variety but not always quality?

About Rawley Taylor: The UKCountryRadio.com favourite makes his music on an island out in the Baltic Sea. The place belongs to Sweden and is called Gotland – full of Viking history and unspoiled coastline and in parts overcrowded with tourists in summer. In that last respect it’s something like where he has his roots in Glorious Devon. Why Rawley is there at all is far too long a story to bother with. But since moving there his musical passion has woken again after a hibernation that should qualify for the Guinness Book of Records. All the real trivia can be read on his website.

Some of Rawley's music can be purchased online but there are many bits and pieces that can be found for free if you know where to look…”Famous” for his designer Zoot suits and the ever-growing collection of Hawaiian shirts is a fetish no-one understands.

Biography

Rawley is an Englishman from the Depths of Devonshire who has made touchdown in Sweden and divides his time between urban living on the mainland and life in the middle of the Baltic on the Swedish island of Gotland where he pumps out his music across the water hoping that someone out there is listening...The next project is taking shape under the working title “The Upstairs Room”. The album will hopefully be released at the end of 2013. Meanwhile there is a taster from the album out on release now. Titled “The Country Rap” it’s one of the tongue in cheek tracks Rawley likes to mix in with the other more down to earth stuff.

About Mark Newberry:

UKCountryRadio.com favourite was a custody sergeant with London’s Metropolitan Police for many years. He served for three decades with London's Metropolitan Police and retired as arguably the busiest custody officer.

After retiring, he took up songwriting. He has since released several songs including this one, produced and recorded by Pete Dymond at his studios in Bristol. In retirement, a love of verse and lyrics came together in the publication of a collection called "Singing Words" in 2006. He then concentrated on song lyrics which led to songs in various genres including country, Christmas and love songs. Mark released several singles in 2013. "You Smiled", performed by Pete Dymond, was recorded and produced by Pete at his studios, Diamond Studios, in Bristol.

It was followed, in July, by "Make Your Mind Up". Mark wrote the lyrics for the song, and teamed up with Bob Evans who wrote the music and recorded the track.

Mark then released a tribute song "Daddy Knew Johnny Cash", followed, in November by "Lonesome Rail", recorded once again by Pete Dymond in his Bristol Studios.

Some of the better known people who have used material after hearing Diamond Studios demos have been: BBC TV, Roger Cooke, David Essex, The Late Mickie Most, Adam Hart-Davies, Roger Greenaway, Emi Records, Sir Paul McCartney.
