Friday Night Extra 3.2.17

This evening we had the usual eclectic mix, helped by the listener’s requests. There were also some musical surprises that are worth catching again if you missed them. We all think we know the song ‘Do you wanna dance?” It was great to hear the original by Bobby Freeman from 1958. Also the track by Asia, a classic 80s sound. Good to receive e-mails with listener’s memories jogged tonight. A first date, which was to see the Elephant Man, brought to mind by remembering John Hurt. Happy student days , recalled by Marillion. Childhood Saturday evenings with parents watching Juke Box Jury. Dancing at school in South Africa to Shakatak. Hiding behind the cushions whilst watching I Claudius. Visiting the house where Johnny Cash lived with June Carter.
Tonight’s playlist

Shires – Beats to the rhythm
Joni Mitchell – Chelsea morning
