For your trip back in time:
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:
California Dreamin – Mamas & The Papas
ABBA – Take A Chance On Me
John Lennon – Woman
Celine Dion – Immortality
LeAnn Rimes – Can’t Fight The Moonlight
Justin Timberlake – Take Back The Night
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! 🙂
