Sinopsis
Thanks for checking us out. These mixes are to support the internet radio station Blue-in-Green:RADIO (http://www.blueingreenradio.com/) which focuses on the very best that I can get my hands on in soul, jazz and funk music. The station and web site aim to chronicle my adventures in soul music as I discover new artists/albums and interview a fair few along the way too. The plan is/was/and always will be to hopefully put you guys on to something fantastic and new in the world of soul music. If you've never heard of them, and like what you hear, then that's great; if it makes you want to get in touch and pitch things my way, then that's even better.
