Radio Owlsnest Episode 50 - (The Final Episode) - On Air With Martin Page

  • Summary

  • Well, I never did truly think “I’d ever get my feet this far”! We have arrived at the final 50th episode of my Radio Owlsnest songwriter podcasts. It’s been a fantastic and lovely journey for me, playing my rare demos from my archives and sharing the stories behind the songs. I labeled you listeners as “OwlHeads” quite early on in the proceedings, and that label has stuck over the ensuing years … and so I’d like to take a moment here to wholeheartedly thank all the “noble OwlHeads” who listened, encouraged, consoled, shared, liked, commented - and above all, became my friends during the recording of these hour or so long episodes. I feel I know a few of you quite intimately. Thank you. In today’s on-line society, when speed is everything, it’s painfully obvious that gaining someone’s attention for sixty minutes or more is a gargantuan and rather fruitless task - particularly when the premise of the show is “retro” and “adult” ... But all in all, I feel “Radio Owlsnest” gained a core underground and finely-tuned audience; so again, thank you for your diligence - against all the odds. Who said the album was dead? Certainly not me or you … I’ve tried to give a few of you OwlHeads out there shout-outs during this show; tried to remember most of your names; forgive me if I didn’t mention a few of you lovelies, but as you know, I “wing it’” and improvise as I go on these freewheeling shows. But know this ... I luvs ya. What has been a revelation for me personally while recording these shows, is gaining an overview of my songwriting career, a kaleidoscopic big view, as such, of my progression, my development, my influences, my strengths and my weaknesses, etc., over the years. It’s not often that a songwriter/artist gets a chance to look back on his or her creative journey. Radio Owlsnest helped me re-evaluate my creative instinct and motivations; It was like looking back at a younger, turned-on, highly enthused version of myself. Certainly a kind of “time travel” took place for me … invaluable and fortunate at this late stage of the game. But mostly it’s been incredible FUN for me; I had a grand old time of it - searching for rare demos in the “Pagey” song archives and remembering, re-living and imparting the hazy stories behind the songs. I was in the “Museum of Myself!” So thank you all for giving me your ears and good spirit, for giving me a platform to express myself - and a damn good reason to dust off those old ditties from the vault and give them life once again. You OwlHeads have been a powerful MOTIVATING force! And massive thanks to our very own Vanessa Leavitt for keeping these shows coming to you. I hope you enjoy the 50th and final episode of Radio Owlsnest. Fly high Martin X
