Review of Islands Are Forever...An Interview With Islands
Interviews are a huge part of radio. This piece just needs a little bit of editing and narration to help it be radio listenable. The questions created a great response from the band, however it was hard to decipher the audio at times. Perhaps a bio of the band and its members, and a little bit of their music being played underneath would morph it into more of a radio doc. I would really like to hear this piece completed, because the Islands are a very influential band and the interview was very dynamic. Right now the piece is just a little to raw.
