In the midst of some scorcher days I thought I'd bring some laid back beach vibes to the studio, before we stepped it up as per. Mori Ra, Drifting Clouds, DJ Spinna and Roland Clark, NoTenshun feat. Sandy Mill and Alphabethead all featured, and we dipped into the bFM faves archive playing Fuemana (RIP), James Pants and Gang Starr to name just a few.
Tonight we spin some 2025 favourites alongside a couple to mark the passing of legendary guitarists Phil Upcharch and Steve Cropper. We are joined in the studio by Dusty Crates.
Kirk's back for his last show of the year. Celebrating a few birthdays this time by playing songs from: Grover Washington, Jr. (12th Dec), Modaji (17th Dec), Angie Stone (18th Dec), Lenny White (19th Dec), Yvonne Gage (20th Dec), Betty Wright (21st Dec), Gwen McCrae (21st Dec), Esther Phillips (23rd Dec), Eugene Record (23rd Dec), Merry Clayton (25th Dec).
Also sadly marking the passing this year of: Gwen McCrae (Died 21st Feb), Angie Stone (Died 1st March), Malcolm-Jamal Warner (Died 20th July) & most recently Carl Carlton (Died 14th Dec) so played 3 favourites from him.
