Where The Action Is: Playlist - Sunday 16 January 2010

Here we go again. Eyes down for a full house, it’s time for this week’s Where The Action Is! Join me for another great mix of mod, soul, girl groups, Motown, sunshine pop, ye-ye and all manner of alternative tracks from the late 50s through to the early 70s! As usual we’ll have two games of Connect 3, where you can guess the link between three tracks, a birthday track for Dave Berry and this week we have a Foreign Language track from Ria Bartok. There’s also the Half-Time Instrumental and Two of a Kind from Ann-Margret.
