I was so pleased to be able to choose the Non-Stop Oldies on the Steve Wright Show on Friday 16 May 2014.
Many of you have emailed to say how much you enjoyed my eclectic selection from the early 70s and the place these songs have in my musically formative years.
Since this is only a half an hour slot, Steve could only play a selection from the 30 songs I was required to choose. Many of you have asked to see my full selection of 30 tracks, so here goes (* = actually played on show):
