Mark Bicknell Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) Well into the Starpoint Radio Groove now in 'The Soul Shack' you can check out recent playlists on the station forum www.starpointradio.com Firstly sorry for the mix up of the covering show not going out last Sunday between 6pm - 8pm on www.starpointradio.com I had to pre - record the show onto Mini Disc and sent it by post and due to the postal dispute it did not arrive in time. I can now confirm that 'The Soul Shack' will return on www.starpointradio.com on a brand new slot every Sunday night between 10pm - Midnight and not on the Saturday night slot as first stated, big thanks to Carl Lewis at Starpoint for giving me the chance to join the station and I can promise 'The Soul Shack' magic will return on Sunday November 4th 2007 and then weekly at this superb new slot. For requests, mentions and dedictaions contact bicknellmark@aol.com The format of the show will be basically the same playing all the very best in quality hard to find Northern Soul, 60's, 70's, Crossover, reviews and previews of all the latest CD and 45 re-issues, Guest Collectors and DJ's, detailed Venue Spotlights and What's On, Two For The Price Of One features and much more. You can listen on www.starpointradio.com and on the SKY DIGITAL Channel which you have to tune in on your Sky box but it's really easy to do with full instructions on www.starpointradio.com Really looking forward to getting back in 'The Soul Shack' and playing a few tunes again. Regards - Mark Bicknell. Final bump just in case you don't know new show starts this coming Sunday November 4th www.starpointradio.com and on SKY - 10pm - Midnight - would love your company.
