R.I.P. Tommy Tate

Awesome! and thank you

That's kind of you Manus. I'm glad you and others appear to have enjoyed it especially given we hadn't had much time to prepare for the show and basically made it up as we went along. As you know Adrian Corbin is an old hand at the radio and makes it easy.

Here is the track listing . Once I've edited out the commercial breaks I can make it available for anyone who's interested (contact me off-line):
