Join me as I celebrate a living legend of Houston and Philadelphia Soul music - Archie Bell, with Mr Tighten Up himself in an exclusive interview!! Archie discussed his long career with me and gave some very interesting details. The show will be in two parts. Fridays 30th June and 7th July from 11am at www.therock926.com London's finest Soul station. Join me from 10am if you can though for an hour of Rare Soul on vinyl!
