ALL-TIME LIST OF BLACK MUSIC pt.1
ROB G.'s MATERIALS FOR AN ALL-TIME LIST OF BLACK MUSIC EDITION 2005/2006
I broadccast my last personal listing "of all times" on Radio SCORPIO, Leuven, in the non-stop afternoon-slot IC/IR - that was 1991. The listing is by defintion made up of oldies, but I mean this in a soul-deejay sense too. However, the 2005 listing still depends much on what was on that list and what was already in my possession (that is a condition for being listed).
The list is in random order and not particularly in the order I played them at Vaaghuyzen November 26th 17.00-19.15.
