Great show this morning, Mike. Many favourites and many songs I've never heard. Always entertaining. Particularly enjoyed the two from Archie Fisher and Garnet Rogers.

Until I heard "The Call" by Catherine MacLellan & John Connolly, I had never heard of the album. I picked it up today, and I'm obsessed over her reading of her dad's songs. I've always been a huge Gene fan, and I have Catherine's other records. This tribute is well worth investigating. Thanks.
