I have now been DJing for Nearly 40 years and have played for Crowds Big and Small I like to think that I play all kinds of music for all types of people in all sorts of places, my passion from those early years started with the Brit Funk and panned across the soul spectrum from there. My need for more took me back to the 60’s and 70's this is when I met with the likes of James Brown, Otis Redding & Motown, Stax, Atlantic & Philly etc. In more recent years I have engaged with a couple of [ Genre I ignored ( foolishly ) for many years Northern Soul & Rare Groove. My show will blend the funky vibes across the soul spectrum. From 60’s and 70’s Funk through Disco into 80’s Funk and Boogie and Beyond right up to the independent soul of the modern artist who is keeping this Genre well and Truly alive.
