Well, there we go. Thank you very much to Bully and not the great show as per normal, mate.

Right, good evening. Welcome to Yours Truly, Lesd. I welcome you here to Zero Radio on a Thursday night. Hope you're going to stick with me for the next couple of hours. Take you through to 9 o'clock. Then over here at the top of the hour, we have the Connoisseurs' Corner. A couple of little jazzy numbers. Street now and then, the back-to-back classic by a classic artist. And then directly after some new ones, in the second half, we've got the three that's been dug out of my garage. Yep, not from the archives, but out of Lizzie's garage.

Right, all the knobs or the sliders are in the right places at the moment anyway. I'll be ready, let's go then.
