Dedicated to the memory of my friend and colleague James Roberts
Gorffwys mewn heddwch
It’s the usual wide mix of genres and eras with the Sunday alphabet of music, taking inspiration from Sarah Tapp’s takeover last week to use some song titles for letters too (just wait for the X and Y…). And the typical trivia trove to boot. But the show is inspired by and dedicated to my late friend and colleague James and his wife and sons. His Luxembourg Reds banner still hangs on match days at Wrexham in honour of the man, and a range of Welsh artists and dedications from students, friends and colleagues are in the mix … which explains the Taylor Swift! The link below gives you an indication of how sorely missed and highly regarded James was. Gorffwys mewn heddwch.
