There's a new album from Dire Straits founder David Knopfler. 'Skating on the Lake', the follow-up to 'Shooting for the Moon'. David is more than just the founder member of Dire Straits, he's steadfastly released his many solo singer-songwriter albums on his own PARIS RECORDS label for decades. Find out more at parisrecords.co.uk  or at 

patreon.com/DavidKnopfler .....the engine that supports his recordings - often requested on our shows.

From 7T's Records (distributed by Cherry Red) comes a 3-CD set featuring all of the big selling albums Alvin Stardust enjoyed with Magnet Records. The hits are here, along with bonus tracks. Great value.

Rodney Collins has been in the media business now for more than 56 years starting out with local newspapers in Surrey and then Record Mirror and Music Week, part of the Billboard group. I then joined Pye Records/ATV and Stoll-Moss Theatres at the end of the 60’s. In 1971 I moved to BBC Radios 1 & 2 in the early 70’s and then worked for Radio Luxembourg/Atlantic 252 in a management capacity and then ran local commercial stations in Glasgow, London and the Isles of Man and Lewis. My programme is currently broadcast by a mix of FM and internet stations and I am now Chairman of Isles FM and a Board consultant to another station. In 2002 we had a world exclusive on Frank Sinatra on Isles FM - see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/1790935.stm
