Craig is joined by soul singer Myles Sanko, plus he puts the spotlight on American singer-songwriter Ann Peebles.

Craig's guest tonight is one of the freshest talents in the UK and has an outstanding voice, he is Myles Sanko. He's known as the lovechild of soul music and is also a producer and cinematographer. He describes his sound as a mixture of soul with rock chord progressions, played by jazz musicians. His intention is to produce music with a feel good vibe and lyrical content that makes people think. Each week we celebrate a legendary lady in the world of Funk & Soul. Tonight we shine the spotlight on the American singer-songwriter who gained celebrity for her Memphis soul albums in the 1970's on Hi Records, Ann Peebles. Two of her most popular songs are "I Can't Stand the Rain", which she wrote with her husband, Don Bryant and radio broadcaster Bernie Miller, and "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down". We hand over the playlist to you the trusted 6 Music listeners in the section of the show we call 'The Spinage au Trois'. What would you like to hear? Email us at craig@bbc.co.uk. At 8pm we'll have 30 minutes of back to back records in the 'Trunk of Funk' section of the show. Expect to hear Northern Soul, rhythm and blues, jazz, blues, gospel or hip hop, Motown hits.......
