Yes it’s true ! Believe it or not, I actually played a track on my soul show this week which featured the bagpipes in it ! Well, that was a definitely a first for me, even though I am well into my tenth year of presenting the programme live at 7pm every Monday…
To hear how it fitted into the scheme of things (though you can probably guess which one it was by looking at the playlist below !) take a listen to the repeat play this Saturday at 5pm on Gateway or head for “Listen Again” on this website and find the show under “Cool Soul” to enjoy the moment now !
And no, it wasn’t a dodgy request from a valued listener, I had a “lightbulb moment” all by myself to come up with it – but I have had some excellent choices sent to me lately, so if you know of a particular favourite soul, jazz-funk or disco tune from the 70s / 80s that you haven’t heard played on the radio for years, do let me know about it. Head for Facebook and post a message on “The Old Gits Soul Show” page or email: [email protected] / text: (01268)833978 with your groovy idea !!
