Gateway Gold is our feature we do around :15 and :45 most hours during the day on Gateway 97.8. It’s our chance to look in the archives and dig out a few gems for your enjoyment. This week on the show, the system spat out these tracks for you:
Cilla Black – Alfie
Elkie Brooks – Pearls A Singer
Timelords – Doctorin The Tardis
Celine Dion ft The Bee Gees – Immortality
Robbie Williams – Something Beautiful
Disclosure ft. Aluna George – White Noise
And that’s about it! Obviously I played a load of great music which you can hear again on the Gateway listen again service, here!
That’s your lot for this week. Keep listening to Gateway, and I’ll be back with you soon! 🙂
