I wasn’t on air on Thursday because I was out enjoying myself (tsk), watching Marc Almond live at the Cliffs Pavilion in Westcliff. Great show, still sounded amazing after all these years, and I sat down for two hours without fidgeting which is pretty much unheard of.

Taking over the Sunday afternoon 4pm-6pm slot for one week did allow me to play some more chilled out stuff, including Senor Coconut’s fantastic Latin cover of Daft Punk’s Around The World, which was released two years ago – how did I miss this one first time round?
