Anders Östberg – Golden hued antique musical lithographs. A whimsical journey to Toytown. Music from my collection.

Anders Östberg is with Radio On since April 2014. Every seven months he sends a new show. Each show is built around a theme. The songs you hear are taken from his vast collection of records. Most of the time the shows are related to cultural or fashion movements in the 1960s and 1970s, movements that appeared for a brief moment and disappeared again, without hardly leaving a trace. Anders shows can be regarded as collections of oddities, but if you look and listen deeper you will see the image of what once was, and now is no more.

Word to Anders
“Some of my favourite obscurities released in the wake of the Beatles Sgt. Pepper album. So here we have princesses, toymakers, azaleas, rhododendrons, dwarfs and wizards that tells you a story in 10,000 words in a cardboard box through the eyes of a lifetime. Enjoy!”
