It seems that my “Soul Connection” feature, which I introduced just under a year ago to my show to give “The Soul Years” a rest, is proving rather popular ! Every Monday around a quarter past eight, my Facebook page explodes with activity with either regular listeners trying to out do each other by getting in first or brand new names popping up out of nowhere with a crack at coming up with the right answer. The last two weeks, that didn’t take long at all … but I recently ‘gave myself a point’ for competely bamboozling everyone with a ‘sea themed’ connection which started with “Roses Are RED” moved onto “Men In BLACK” then concluded with “Wanted DEAD Or Alive” having thrown in two huge red herrings to send them up a “Connection Cul De Sac” ! 😉
If you haven’t heard it yet and you have a bit of a quizzer in you from watching game shows on TV or playing puzzles online, see what you can make of this week’s one when I play three relevant soul tracks in a row shortly after 8pm. Why not take a peek at some rprevious playlists on here by tracking back through the latest blogs and see if you can spot the three connected songs visually ? Even better, go to the “Listen Again” section and try it ‘as live’ – without going to Facebook and seeing the answers !
Meanwhile, back to the music – which is what the show is all about after all – and check out this week’s playlist here :
