Hi guys, American Dave here with the lowdown on this week's show, so, we were off to a bit of a jerky start until we realised and accepted that Linda was in charge, after that everything calmed down to our usual fare of texts, phone calls, facebooks and emails requesting the songs of yesteryear er, gone by forever in a musical erm, can you tell I'm just trying to pad it out to a line or four until I can tell you that next week's guests will be, Linda Blanchard and Denise Smith, Hoorah, I'll leave you with it then, I'm outa here, see you.

PS just a note to let everyone know that thursday's Love Train is having a change of time slot, instead of being from 10-12 we are now running from 8-10 just like the Payne's reunion do your ears a favour and join me Dave Hanson, John Ivor and Harry Pritchard for two hours of not quite your ordinary love songs, see you.

Doris Day's screen musicals will be an hour long feature as she has burst into song on so many occasions even in her later sophisticated comedies with Rock Hudson. Starting in the forties she was still singing onscreen in the eighties. I will be splitting her film songs into two parts one half an hour long every hour,so if you're a Doris Day fan tune in to Tudnofm 107.8 next Sunday from  2-4pm or online at Tudnofm.co.uk and click on LISTEN LIVE.

Hello everyone!

Another Wednesday night and with it, as sure as hangover follows good night out , comes Not on the Playlist.

We had an ancient featured album which was 'A Salty Dog' by Procul Harum'. One of those albums it's hard to pick just three tracks  from which is always a good sign.

The Long Song was by the Canadian group The Besnard Lakes and 'You've Got to Want to be a Star'. I hope to be featuring their new album in the coming weeks.

Kitsch'n'Sink featured the Alan Parsons Project's 'Don't Answer Me' with vocals by Eric Woolfson. Now Mr Parsons is the boss of Abbey Road. Probably gets to cross the famous zebra crossing every day, curse him!

Three in a Row featured another not-very-rock'n'roll name - this time Albert. Hammond pere et fils (99 miles from LA and The Strokes' 12-51) plus Paul McCartney and Wings' 'We're So Sorry Uncle Albert'.

Besides a rather natty jumper and a jigsaw, the charity shop's corner gave us 'Who Killed The Zutons?'. I'm not sure, but the track I featured was 'Confusion'. Appropriate, I suppose.

Now what else was going on? The Guillemots, for a start, plus Radiohead, David Byrne featuring Santagold, Efterklang, Brian Eno, Deaf School, Editors,  These New Puritans,  Dusty Springfield, It's Immaterial and Judie Tzuke.

Keep on keeping on!

When Frank Sinatra refused to record " My heart cries for you" for Columbia Records and A & R manager Mitch Miller,  a young man called Guy Mitchell got his opportunity to release his first record. Sintra's disdain at having to record a country and Western record to improve his record sales opened the door for Mitchell who went on to record hit after hit after hit with novelty songs that had great commercial appeal in the early fifties.       By the sixties his career was over but the records are still remembered with great affection by all who are of a certain age. Listen to Tudnofm 107.8 next Tuesday 8-10pm or online at Tudnofm.co.uk and listen live for the GUY MITCHELL TOP TEN SINGLES.
