  1. What an unusual mix this week. The Chuck Berry, Bruce Springstein video must rank as one of the best music videos on You Tube. Perhaps you should start a 10 best song intros list. I remember the Battlefield Band being a staple of the 70’s and 80’s folk music scene around Glasgow. They kept going for a long time then disappeared in 2017. Then the worlds first, and only, Scrumpy and Western band. It was a great shame that the Wurzel’s song you played was only released two years after their founder, Adge Cutler’s tragic death. Adge would have been over the moon at the result of the World Cup this week. He loved everything Spanish.
