Will Lord #FTRS345

We’ve had 30 outings since Will’s last appearance on the show. That’s just about enough time for him to have trained an AI to replace himself (and the rest of us). Fortunately he hasn’t just been sitting in front of a screen. Instead he’s been trawling the record stores of Cambridge, London, Edinburgh and the internet to discover tunes old and new for your enjoyment.

Drawing from new finds, and his ever-expanding collection, Will’s put together a show that brings you jazz, acid (the jazz kind and the house kind), deep house, Afro-funk, global groove and lots of edits. Oh, and some yacht rock of course. All on vinyl and accompanied by Will’s dulcet drive time tones. Perfect for your commute, your after party, or sitting in front of a spreadsheet at work wondering how your life turned out this way.

Loved "Love Endeavour" great to hear Yesterday's New Quintet again and enjoyed the afro funk and gospel disco bits. I might have to dig out a "Ride Like The Wind" version for next week.

Yeah, that version of Love Endeavor is a thing of beauty. Makersmark introduced me to the Joey N remix of Ride Like the Wind years ago. I love that one too. Gold dust on vinyl nowadays I think.
