Pete S Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Cheers to everyone who tuned in yesterday - over 60 people - ended up running it through the night and there was still one person left when I got up this morning. Done a few themed shows for today so I don't know how these will work but the general consensus is that people like the ska and soul to be alternated, not one hour of one and one of the other. Anyway 12 midday RARE NORTHERN SOUL and TREASURE ISLE ROCKSTEADY Northern includes Tommy Turner, Ree Flores, Betty Wilson, Arcades, Soul Communicators, Hytones, Hyperions etc 2pm RARE NORTHERN plus CHOICE SKA Northern includes Caressors, Greater Experience, Appreciations, Startones, Rotations, Gallahads, Grand Prixs, King Sound etc 4pm Some BLAXPLOITATION FUNKY TRACKS mixed with REGGAE VINTAGE 69 Not quite sure about this but going to give it a go Will be broadcasting all day and all night with a mix of ska and northern soul...new playlists I AM HAPPY TO PLAY REQUESTS - NORTHERN SOUL OR REGGAE - EMAIL ME WITH ANYTHING YOU WANT TO HEAR AND I WILL MAKE UP A REQUEST SHOW AND LET YOU KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO BE ON Timings are approximate. how to listen.. go to https://pirateradionetwork.com/ scroll down until you come to MUSIC go down to ALTERNATIVE and click on SKA A GO GO if you click on the name you can download the player and listen in excellent quality.

Pete S Posted September 9, 2005 Author Posted September 9, 2005 number 5 in the top ten shows that constitutes a sucess doesn't it wd pete link Yeah considering it's impossible to find unless someone tells you where it is - loads and loads of listeners yesterday, about 30 today, I've really pulled some good stuff out today though to be honest Ged, a few jaws must have dropped when I played that last couple of unreleased things. Just need to get a mic working with it then I can invite people round to guest spots!

Pete S Posted September 9, 2005 Author Posted September 9, 2005 If anyone was actually waiting for the blaxploitation/70's funky stuff, the northern is overunning by about an hour by the looks of it

Guest Karen Heath Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Just tuned in for a bit and heard that cover of the Madness one-Shame and Scandal in the family. ONLY JOKING. Seriously though, I am quite ignorant in this field of music (ooh sounds like a festival) Is that one Prince Buster? I have a feeling it was also covered by Lance Percival or someone like that. Is that right or very very wrong?!
