"Have a great 2025 RPMers."
"I’ve been listening to a lot of radio this week and Anoushka Shankar (who has been promoting her new album) has been ubiquitous on Radio 3. I’ve listened to the whole album and it is glorious. AÛB came up on a jazz show and I’ve chosen Geeshie Wiley as I think it is one of the most wonderful tracks ever and has been with me for at least 40 years. Best wishes for the New Year."
