Just sorting out the running order for tomorrow's edition of #ThePlaylist, and I'm not going to lie, the track I'm opening with could well be the best track I've ever played.
Just sorting out the running order for tomorrow's edition of #ThePlaylist, and I'm not going to lie, the track I'm opening with could well be the best track I've ever played.
And if you have a shortage of covers of TV themes, can I recommend the band Dream Themes (one of Rhodri Marsden’s projects) which does belter versions of loads of them, eg The Antiques Roadshow. There’s lots of short, fun ones on this album.
Late Kate-ing #ThePlaylist as is our Tuesday morning tradition and enjoying all the balls. Reet Petite was an inspired suggestion.
And for extremely literal, why not Kojak Columbo by Harry Nilsson:
“You got nineteen inches, baby, that's a real good size
I could lie there on the floor and just look at you all night long
I could twist your knobs right off, fool around with you
I don't need no TV guide tell me what to do”
I’d suggest anything off the Matt Berry Television Themes album, but particularly World In Action because it Goes Hard.
Oh! I forgot to post #ThePlaylistExtra links!
These are tracks that were suggested and that were bangers in their own right, but that I just didn't have time for because, despite appearances, I am not a god who can control time.

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist:
Television
A simple one; two hours of the music of the band Television. And some Terrorvision thrown in for good measure just because.
I JOKE OF COURSE, though I suppose it depends on what you fine #Fediverse folks suggest.
Sling all of your television-related tracks this way, using #ThePlaylistSuggestion hashtag, and together we'll build yet another banger of a radio show.

Adjust yourselves accordingly, for the #Fediverse' very own radio show, #ThePlaylist returns once more for your delectation.
The theme this week:
BALLS
Bouncy balls, dancey balls, meaty balls, and, erm, salty balls. They're all here for you to stuff into your earholes.

Here’s this week’s #ThePlaylistPlaylist
Apple Music:

Well, that was a radio show that I presented.
This selection is, quite frankly, aggressively '80s.
The social pages say I've got the biggest balls of all
"I love a genre jump, and this show is flippin Jonathan Edwards."
This’ll be @guffo’s suggestion this week, then ? #theplaylist
This track is utter, utter filth. And not because of the bassline.
Just accidentally dun a swear on air and am not at all happy about it.
