Good man, every saturday night and you can back log years of broadcasts. Nothing specific, just good tunes
I was lucky enough to live and work in Norh Carolina for a year in the very late' 90s. Found a number of really good stations there then, country, soul, 60's etc.
They all played a huge variety of artists and songs, often obscure, not just the same hits which in the end becomes monotonous.
I remember one friday afternoon listening to a soul station and they talked of their 10th anniversary sold out concert that night with a local soul/R&B group to open, Kool and the gang as main support, and then The Isley Brothers. It was to be held at an amphitheatre about 30 miles from where I was living
Now Ron Isley is my favourite soul singer, he and his brothers/family have recorded for me some awesome tunes.
Sorry, waffling now. Will try and keep it short.
Drove to venue without a ticket, security wouldn't let me in. I hung around outside listening for a couple of hours, as the concert was supposedly finishing they opened the exits, I rushed in to hopefully see the last of it.
Turns out Kool had decided to play a set lasting 75 minutes instead of the agreed 40 minutes.
On strode Ron and Ernie (along with the rest of the band). Few know that Ernie Isley was taught guitar by Jimi Hendrix.
Remember Ron saying 'we have gone beyond the curfew but we have got a half hour extension, so no talking just singing'
then he started, hit after hit after hit, absolutely brilliant. From songs like Shout, That Lady, Twist and Shout, Behind A Painted Smile, Between The Sheets, and ultimately This Old Heart Of Mine.
All note perfect, the guy has a God given talent
