The first hour of Funkier Radio is always recorded live and off the cuff - I never know what's coming. Sometimes it all seems to go a bit wrong, and other times everything seems to just fall into place. This time everything felt right and it really felt like my hour came together nicely. I cram in some funk edits, classic boogie, something a bit deeper, some raw funk, horns, jangling guitars and a lovely new edit from @dexter-jones-disco, who starred in the guest mix slot not long ago.
Hour 2 follows on in suitably strong form, with an exclusive guest mix from Probably Shouldn't, AKA John Ricketts. Probably Shouldn't is a talented DJ and producer from York, UK, with loads of releases under his belt already on labels like Solid State Disco, Big Love Records, Fade To Funk, See Saw and Star Funk Records. His guest mix is a classy hour and a bit of tunes, taking in Aretha Franklin, Al Green and the one and only Chaka Khan. It's a good one, so take a listen, then show John some love...
