Massive thanks to everyone who showed out for Saturday's first The Breaking Point with myself- Stephen T and Ian Jackson at The Castle. Our first guest, Glen Goodwin played scorching sets as you'd expect- many thanks for agreeing to help us out mate. Thanks also due to www.therock926.com and presenters for help with the promotion- thanks Rock family. The mixer didn't record the mic so the recording (link below in three parts) just plays as a long mix, but I hope you enjoy it and it makes you want to make the journey to the next session in May.

Next date- 27th May featuring special guest Jonathan Dabner (The Shake Up). 9pm-3am at The Castle, 44 Commercial Road, London, E1 1LN. Free entry/ pub price bar/ across the board Rare Soul on original vinyl/ only event showing for this night in London!
