Dance, dance, dance

 

If the audio stops playing, press stop and allow time for the stream to load. 

This week, we examine the raison d'etre of rock and roll: the call to dance. And what better way to start of the programme but with a folk tune played by Bert Jansch and John Renbourn. Groovy.

Part one of the show is a hot shoe shuffle through some soul and disco tracks. In part two, we pogo and wreck to some punk and new wave. And then in part three, we do modern dance to some kosmiche from Germany and some alt rock from the US. A shout out to Alex this week and the closer is dedicated to Mrs Johns.
