Greetings all!

As we enter week two of the international lockdown, I have been busy in the lab, brewing up the mix you see before you.

Recent acquisition of a couple of choice Monkees’ covers had me rummaging in the crates to pull out enough for a whole mix.

What you get is ‘Hey! Hey! We’re Not the Monkees!’, 24 tracks, including a couple of demos as well as later version of songs by their composers, and a grip of contemporary (and even previous) versions of songs made famous by Micky, Davy, Mike and Peter.

So take a giant step, pull down the ones and zeroes and dig!

Greetings all!

When this whole crazy lockdown/quarantine shindig rolled down the pike, I promised that I was going to work on some new mixes/radio shows, to keep myself busy and to give you all something to pass the time.

What you see before you is the first of two Iron Leg/Testify mixes that roll on the same thing, that being folks from the non-hip side of things trying to roll  the rocks, pop and get psychedelic (in their own way).

Some of it is kitschy, all of it is kicky, so dig in and I’ll be back next week with volume 2!
