The Studio
From the early 70's right up to today I've enjoyed playing and presenting great soul music. With a history of mobile discos, cruise liners, pub & club gigs, I finally decided that while the mind was willing, the body wasn't up to the physicality and late nights. So some 40 plus years later I moved into online broadcasting in 2015 where I currently present a Thursday night show on Crackers Radio at 10 pm (www,crackersradio.com) called "Diggers Delight", where you'll find a couple of hours of rare grooves, collectables and some stone cold classics, just the stuff for the end of the day.
