  • 18 maart 2006 - 1979-1995

    VAAGHUYZEN ROB G. 18 March 2006: Anniversary waltz


    A strange experience - playing out the records you spun as new on the radio, at the time...
    The set was inspired by the mindless idiocy of a certain radio station that broadcast a top-880 of the eighties. Their eighties are not mine. These are - well in fact the selection runs from 1979 to 1995, about the year I stopped bothering about new Anglo-American music, more or less. Soul music was not the main priority this time. (R.G.)


    The anniversary: Lady Godiva being 21 years on radio, RG 27 years, and both for two years now spinnning the platters that matter at Vaaghuyzen...
