When did it all begin?

well about 40 yrs ago I was bouncing about The Hammersmith Palais in my mums belly.. Thats when I started to dance to funky disco and I have never stopped.... Started Dj-ing when I was still at school.  Got myself decks, amp and mixer and I was off.... parties and weddings.  At 18 I managed to get regular nights in several pubs in South West London.  Radio career began around this time starting with QMBS.  I left London and moved to Essex a few years later and started broadcasting on local hospital radio.

I fondly remember listening to Tony Blackburn and Robbie Vincent on Radio London´s Soul Night Out and being totally inspired.  A right little soul boy!  Regularly found at Hammersmith Palais, Maximus Leicester Square, Ritzy and Options in Kingston.

So why not re-visit my youth??  Contacted Bully (an old acquaintance from hospital radio days) and a few weeks later here I am, playing the best in disco, dance and soul from the 70s and 80s

Tune in every Thursday night to Whistles and White Socks Brigade from 10pm til 12 midnight and re-live the days when you did not have a care in the world, the weekend started on a monday and ended on a sunday!!
