I am now using a new broadcast system for my shows and have (at last) worked out how to get my playlist. It looks a little different but here is what I played on Thursday 30th June 2022 If you want to know what album a particular track is taken from, please ask in the comments and i will give you details.

Some of the 'eagle-eared' among yhou may have noticed that over the last few weeks the shows have been repeats from last year. This is due to technical issues I have been suffering with my broadcast set-up and system (which isn't Switch Radio's and they bear no responsibility whatsoever). The good news is that it is working again and next week (and on-going) will be a brand new show. I will be featuring Aerosmith in the First and Last feature while we shall resume the trip (backwards) through the A-Z (or as it is now Z-A) of rock and metal and feature an hour of bands and artists whose names begin with the letter 'J ', and of course a brand new 'Same title - Different song'.
I hope you will be able to join me at Midnight on the 30th of June.
