A fine selection, but only one woman in the list (Cowboy Junkies vocalist Margo Timmins). Gotta do something about that…
Very nice list. Could very well be the same as one I’d put up. Good stuff. I’ll have to do another 20 random 5 star tracks tonight.
You have good tastes, my man. The next time BBC Radio needs a nighttime DJ, give them a call!
