Episode 9

Steve Miller is back with 2 hours of upbeat tunes to pick you up and never let you down!

With energetic and positive music from almost every decade in the last 100 years (!) there’s good vibes for everyone. And, as always, there’s a look at someone else’s version of someone else’s song, and this episode’s ‘Cover Story’ sees a queen of soul taking on a king of rock, ‘Give The Drummer Some’ looks to the heavens for one of the greatest breaks or beats to break and bust the system, and ‘R.E.S.P.E.C.T.’ is duly paid by a Motown legend as they unveil their appreciation and admiration for one of America’s greatest composers.

So tell your friends. Tell your enemies. Because this is the best way to soundtrack 2 hours of your day.
