Sunday the 8th of March is International Women's Day, so I'm playing music by some amazing women for much of the show to celebrate. Later on I indulge myself with a few new musical revelations from AMRAP as well as a couple of my favourite tracks because I can (and yesterday marked another trip for me around the Sun).

Plato told us “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.”

Napolean Bonaparte said “Music is what tells us that the human race is greater than we realise"

Frank Zappa simply said “Music Is The Best”
