Well, there we go. Thanks very much to Billy. Another great show as per normal, mate.
All right, hope you're going to stick with me for the next couple of hours. Take you through 9 o'clock. Quality Jazz Fun Console all the way. Don't forget, halfway through, at the top of the hour, 8 o'clock, a couple of nice little jazzy numbers for you in the connoisseurs' corner. Between now and then, we got the back to back classic by a classic artist. And in the second half, after a couple of new ones, we got the three that's been dug out of my garage. That's it, not the old coast, but out of Les's garage.
All right, all the knobs, all the sliders are all in the right places, so it's about time we got going, don't you think?
