Normal(ish) service is resumed...

I've had a few weeks away from presenting my SFR show and posting my random ramblings on here. I don't think it's any big secret that I suffer from periodic bouts of severe depression and I've just endured one of the more severe bouts I've had for a year or two. I seem to be over the worst of it now thankfully and tonight I ventured back on to the virtual airwaves. The playlist is below; no particular theme or anything worthy of special mention - just what I consider to be tunes worth sharing. I'd like to say a huge than you to the folks at SFR for taking my unplanned absence in their stride and being so encouraging & supportive. A big thanks to other friends and listeners too for their concern, support & help. OK, enough of the mushy Oscar-winner's-speech cack - here's the playlist:
