Well, there we go, yes. Just about to start, and it all went boom. But now we're ready, yes. Thanks very much to Bully, great show, mate, yes, as per normal. Well, then, good to stick with me for the next couple of hours, taking you through to 9 o'clock. Quality jazz, funk and soul, all the way. So we get to the top of the hour, we have a couple of jazzy things for you, yes, and that's in the connoisseurs corner. Between now and then, back to back classic by classic artists.
And then in the second half, after a couple of brand new ones, come in this week, we got the three that's been dug out of my garage, not from the archives, but out of Lizzie's garage.
Right, and all the knobs, all the sliders are all in the right places. Time to go, isn't it?
