Will try to keep this updated as much as i can, everyone of them will be the "DBeeezzz" { in my opinion } each day these "cuts" get played 10>15 times on mt trip home from the "ol' sea wall"

Re: Top plays in me truck!!

Classics one and all Richard, but the Aretha track is a bit short and I fear for other road users whilst you're giving it 'Rewind' (I think that's how the kids say it...)

Hope you're well mate and I hope you've got better length (pardon the expression) on thursday and friday!
