Mel............. is there a podcast of the weekly shows & if so can we download them ?

Thanks again for your kind words of feedback Garv. No podcast facility on BIR as yet, but it's coming I believe. In the meantime I think it's repeated today at midday.

So for anyone who's at a loose end and near a PC this lunchtime from 12 'till 3, feel free to log in and listen: www.banburyinternetradio.com and click on your preferred listening method (WMP / Real Player etc).

As a heads up of what I played after Nick opened the show with a few:

The first 45 mins or so was focussed on what I think are some great affordable 45's....Recent(ish) releases from The Teenagers (levels were all out for this first one, but then sorted!), DeRobert & the Half-Truths, JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound, Patrick Henry....Some great previously unreleased 45's on Kent Select / Hayley / Soul Junction from likes of Spencer Wiggins, Willie Bollinger, Sy Hightower, Natural Impulse....and some great original 70's from Phyllis Hyman, Patti York (Thanks again Steve Plumb for that one! ).

The second hour was focussed on what I think are some great double-siders, playing both sides of original 45's by artists such as Bottom & Company, Margie Joseph, The Innersection, JP Robinson, The Dynells, The Prophets...+ fave sides from The Lovettes, The Lovations, Lillian Dupree, Towana & The Total Destruction, The Enchanted Five.

Third hour was just a few more of my current fave 60's / 70's original 45's from artists such as Jackson Sisters, The Enchanted Five, The Chaumonts, Choice of Colour, Clay Brown, Nick Allen, Mixed Feelings, Viola Wills, Lorraine Rudolph, Sandra Phillips, Jo Ann Garrett, The Puzzles, The Enticers, Jesse James, James Walsh Gypsy Band, Fir-ya, Bobby Thurston & The Dells.

Thanks again to Nick for having me on, to Mel for food, drink, banter & chat room stuff, to Banbury Soul Club for making me feel even more nervous in the studio and for all those who listened and gave banter + shared knowledge of records etc in the chat room at the time.

Ted Massey is special guest this coming Tuesday night, and I'll certainly be listening from 8pm as usual.

Cheers, Steve

Fantastic show tonight Mel..... Sir Ted played a top class set of soul, looking forward to hearing Pat Lewis next week

What an amazing show, BiR at its very best , Great Soul , Great people and Great fun ... Ted Massey and the Banbury crew did us proud tonight.

I am still buzzing, what fine tunes and all played in the right order (loved the requests)

See you all next Tuesday . With Pat Lewis!!!

Ok........where do I begin??? At the beginning....... what a fantastic Tuesday night. For once I am struggling with what to write as I don't want to sound grovelling and obsequeous.

I think keeping it simple is the way to go:

Sublime, superb, joyful, awesome (in the proper sense of the word), humbling, emotional. I think maybe if everyone adds their own word then I can print it out, frame it and send a copy to Ted.... A little offering from us mere mortals

I wish I had the ability to paste up all the wonderful comments from the chat room last night, words from the green room and those received on the phone last night& texts and PM's received on here; I was so lucky to be a part of it.

Thank you Ted and Thank you Lou for making the trip down to Banbury last night. The pleasure was ALL ours XXXX

(Ok now pass the bucket ) Melly xxx

12pm Sunday Mike ,I should think you will not be alone in listening ..

The chat room will be open as well ,,

If I wasn't at the London dayer I would deffo be there too

Really enjoyed the show , I too missed a couple of hours at the start because I got myself absorbed involved into a KTF reunited facebook thread , found myself acting as an archivist ( if thats the right word) posting old pictures up most of the night , anyway when I realised Ted was on the show I tuned in and I was not dissapointed , he played a superb couple of hours of music to my ears.

Glad you all enjoyed it with Ted's superb set & Lou Lou's chatroom banter & info.....repeated on sunday 12- 3 pm; chat room open; You can hear Nick playing some of his own tunes on Classicsoul.biz show from 10 -12 so that is your sunday sorted people!!!

Next week on Shades of Soul it will be a little different as Pat Lewis will be in to chat escorted by burnley dave and Hitsville Chalky who are chaperoning her to a select few venues around the UK; she will be on at Warwick Soul Club on Friday 24th.

Phew!!!!! its only wednesday so still got the weekend to look forward to.......I'm exhausted but hey Tuesday is the new saturday!!!!!!

BiR goes from strength to strength.....

Getting excited already ,, Tuesday is Soul night in this house

Pat Lewis.........what a wonderful woman. She was charming, funny & gorgeous..think everyone just fell in love with her tonight.

Time flew bye and we still had time for Eddie Hubbard in the chair, Nick to eat the remainder of the buffet and silly, giggly fun in the chat room.

Sublime soultime XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Thanks to everyone who made the effort to come down to meet Pat - especially Pat & Finney from Towcester, Rich Mason from Oxford , Banbury Soul Club, Tabs, Eddie Hubbard & everyone who tuned in tonight. Hope you enjoyed the show and hearing Pat sing live - OOH BOY!!! Just perfect.

Melly XXX

Brilliant stuff. Was great to hear her chat and sing! She was a good sport and a genuine person.

From soul nobility to soul royalty to soul peasantry next Tuesday

Who you calling a peasant? I dream of being a peasant, it's my life's ambition.
