Blues

This week’s Same Song Different Decade contrasts a Beatles original with a funk-infused cover by Earth, Wind & Fire; while Country Crossover explores the link between country and jazz. Plus, Fred’s Jukebox makes its debut with a personal pick from 2004, as Fred reflects on the early days of discovering a love of music and radio.

Join Fred and the cats broadcasting live from home studio. This morning’s show opens in pure feel-good fashion, with a bright 1970s welcome setting the tone for a relaxed, confident start to the weekend. From there, the programme unfolds into a wide-ranging Saturday morning journey, where familiar voices turn up in unexpected settings and well-known songs are heard through fresh lenses.
