Well, there we go, thanks very much to Jazz Buds for some great show that was. Some great interesting sounds here, I do like it. Right, good evening, and welcome to yours truly Les. Don't forget you're here to Soul Legends Radio, my bi-weekly, two-hour show featuring, well, quality jazz, funk and soul all the way. Right, I'm ready, hope you're ready, we're gonna get going now, I think, yeah. Hey, Soul Legends fans, this is the Funky Lizard, and I listen to Les Knott, when I'm not spinning my own tunes. So, there you go, now you have it. Les Knott, Soul Legends Radio, funk, soul, jazz, coming straight to you.
Well, here we go, starting off the general track. Haven't played for a long, long time. Sound on the level 42, of course, and here we go, a bit of Star Child. Les Knot right now, Soul Legends Radio. Mm, you know it's gonna be awesome.
Well, we have quite a recent release on I Want to Sound the Julian Jonah, and Robbie Lavin, it's called Les Knotts Say Goodnight. From there, let's go a bit more back in time about this one, Wayne Henderson. Alright, that was a really nice sound. It was either Wayne Henderson, or there we go with Dancing Love Affair. Alright, let's have a little bit of Philly, I think. A bit of Dexter.
Well, let me go back in time with that one who sounded Dexter Wansel, a bit on the Philadelphia label, of course. I'll never forget my favorite disco. Gonna go back even further now, I've dug this one out of my collection before. I have never played this in years. I'm gonna play it now. If you go back as far as I do, your notice is Eddie Drennan. So, here we go, way, way, way back, yes. Sound of Eddie Drennan, and there we go, let's do the Latin Hustle. Gotta say hi to Beverly, I think she's listening on her phone at the moment. She should be in a cab by now on her way back home, so she'll be listening properly soon. Over there in Melbourne, Australia, I've gotta say good morning to Regnardoo. Good morning to you, Reg.

Well, here we go, another one, way, way back in time, the sound of Johnny Guitar Watson. And a little bit entitled, I Need It, yeah. All right, from way back in time, let's come right up to date, another brand new one from Disco Stallion. They seem to release a new one every week at the moment, but here we go, I like it.
Well, every time they bring one out, it's just as good as the last one, isn't it? It's about the fourth new release in this month. Salva Disco, Stallion, I want you closer. And I gotta say hello to Sagree. Sagree, over there in South Africa, how you doing, my darling? Oh, here we go, one of my favorites from the year 1977, The Sound of Pockets.

Hello, Barry and Kerry. Julian Posey, yes, they're definitely on because Beverly heard them and she was making her way in. And Mr. Marky Mark Pemberton. Hello, Marky Mark, how you doing, mate? There you go. Solange Radio brings you Les Knott, spinning the soul, funk and smooth jazz. Well, there we go, way back in time. There, it does sound like Gary Bart's nice little jazzy sound. It's called music, of course. Hey, what's up, everybody? This is your girl, Natasha Watts, and I am listening to Les Knott.
Let's go. An absolute classic from the man Johnny Taylor, of course. And it's called What About My Love. I gotta say hi to Mr. Al Green. Hello, I am hateful. Hello, how are you doing, mate? How are you doing? Oh, excuse me, I got a bit of a froggy in the throat. Well, there's another one I haven't played for quite a while now, way back, signed of Michael Cooper. And remember that one step into a love song. Hi, this is Howard Johnson, and you're listening to Les Knot. Remember, it's so fun keeping love new. Well, let's go way back in time with an old friend of mine. Yes, Howard Johnson, of course. And here we go, Keep In Love, Do Love That One. Right, time for another new one. Well, there we go, the sound of Petawan. P-E-T-A-W-A-Y-N-E. I don't know what it stands for, but it's a good name. And there we go, the new one is called Keep On. We're talking the new ones, yes, we've got to have solutions if we're going to play them, aren't we?
