Global Get It On...

Bryan Burnett | 19:58 UK time, Monday, 27 February 2012

It's true that you can't please all of the people all of the time, but we do try. My producers go to enormous lengths every night to make sure that we try and represent the tastes of as many of our listeners as possible. We all make it a bit of a mission to cram in as many different kinds of music as well. Tonight's show was a good example of that covering everything from First Aid Kit to Helen Shapiro and from Victoria Wood to Blink 182. Tomorrow night it's a theme suggested by Sam in Edinburgh which is pop geography, in other words artists who share a name with a place - Boston and Belinda Carlisle could both feature on this globetrotting Get It On, but do get in touch and let me know what else you fancy.

    However, if you wish an explanation, I have awarded that song 5 stars on my ayechoons and, when looking for a song to suggest, Alice comes up at the top of my 5-star list (before Arlo, Beatles, Boomtown, Bruce, etc)

    I notice the theme is called Global Get It On - obviously to mark the passing of Global Gathering, something else which will be finishing up soon:- so here's something that I heard on that show.

    Sasha Nairobi -Puro Cuento sounds fabby, wonder what the translation is?
