Al Southgate - Live @ Old School Studios
LIVE @ OLD SCHOOL STUDIOS with MR JASON – Saturday 16th February 2013
AL SOUTHGATE – HURRAY! Happy Birthday to us! It’s our 300th episode! Did you think we’d make it this far? On this week’s landmark show we have one of our oldest musical aquaintances. Iain, my co-host on Planet Beet, has been friends and in bands with Al Southgate for the last 13-14 years, and Iain first played me Al’s music back when we first met. I’ve followed Al’s career over the years, and his well-crafted songs have just got better and better, and continue to. I’m very pleased that on the 300th show we have someone that we’ve been championing since way before this show began. Thanks for listening, whether you’re new to the show, or a hardened OSS fan of old. It’s been a crazy ride, but here’s to another 6 years!
Hey, Whaddaya Say, Let’s Radio!
