15th April 2014 Boy Girl Boy Girl - Folk Blues Folk Blues

Hi all

This week's show was one of those 'what to do shows' I hadn't had the time to go through last week's post a
and put on the Mike Scot tracks and as it was Easter holidays for the school where Somer Valley FM is based we didn't get the post in for this week either so a bit low on the 'What's in the Post?' front as well.  So may be a good excuse to get some time in at the end of the show for a good ol' 'Time for Tom' as its been missing of late and we all know that 'Tim Waits for no man'
