Here’s my tribute to the Dave Simmons Soul Show including links to recordings of the original broadcasts on the YouTube channel Getting Mighty Crowded.
I’m reposting because the channel has released a special video connected to this article. So proud!

Tribute to the Dave Simmons Soul Radio Show broadcast by BBC Radio 1 between 1972 and 1974. This was where I discovered not only soul, blues and R&B but also how musical genres and styles are interconnected. You’ll also find links to uploads of recordings of the show online.
