Have you had a good day? I hope you have. We're going to have a good evening. I'll tell you, I've got some great music lined up for you for the next two hours. [MUSIC] A big thank you to Chris Williams for carrying on and looking after the show for me last week while I was out and had a good night out with my wife. That's the most important thing. And Wednesday was the only one we could do. And we went to a show. And then we had a nice meal. So thank you for asking everybody. [MUSIC] You'll request any request you'd like 01255 808 1113. Or of course you can email studio@bigelradio.co.uk. Now there's a reason I played that Venus Night Flight to Venus by Bonium at the beginning. It brings back rather unusual memories to me, that song. And I'm asking you, any song that you have a special meaning or a memory, let us know we're playing it for you in part two. No worries. Maybe in part one if it's time. So any song with anything special to you, let us know what it is. We're getting sorted out for you. And of course tell us what the memory is. Why was one coming already? [LAUGH] Mary and Walker, you're fast. Thanks very much. You must have been ready for that. [MUSIC] We've got some big old factoids for you from 1965 and '66. And of course the regular Jack Shepard request spot as well. So let's go on with the music. And a few reminders of who we are. And what we do, we are big old. And of course you are. [MUSIC] If all radio stations in town were palm trees, we'd be the one with the biggest coconuts. [LAUGH] Big help! Help! Help! Help! [MUSIC] Hi. Oh, Johnny Walker, God bless you. What are you doing? Hi, this is one of the original Pirates, Johnny Walker. With a reminder, you're listening to Peter Twilight right here on Wonderful Big L. Enjoy the show. And all the best of you, Johnny. Let's get this show on the road. Let's get this show on. That sounds a good idea to me. Here's the Ebony Brothers. Walk right back that I didn't have time to play. When I was covering yesterday, was it? Yeah. [LAUGH] [MUSIC] I want you to know that since you walked out on me, nothing seems to be the same way. Think about the love that burns within my heart for you. But good times we had before you went away, oh me. Walk right back to me this minute. Bring your love to me, don't send it on. So long since every day. [MUSIC] I want you to tell me why you walked out on me. I'm so long since every day. I want you to know that since you walked out on me, nothing seems to be the same way. Think about the love that burns within my heart for you. But good times we had before you went away, oh me. Walk right back to me this minute. Bring your love to me, don't send it on. I'm so long since every day. I'm so long since every day. The Everly Brothers there and of course it was a track that was on Guess the Intro yesterday when I was covering for my good friend Ray Heaven. And didn't have time to play it because I had so much other music. Talking of good music, here's Buddy Holly, every day. [MUSIC] Every day, it's again closer, going faster than a roller coaster. Love like yours will actually come my way. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Every day, it's again faster. Everyone said go out and ask her, love like yours will actually come my way. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Every day seems a little longer, every way. Love's a little stronger, come what may. Do you ever long for true love from me? Every day, it's again closer, going faster than a roller coaster. Love like yours will actually come my way. Hey, hey, hey, hey. [MUSIC] Every day seems a little longer, every way. Love's a little stronger, come what may. Do you ever long for true love from me? Every day, it's again closer, going faster than a roller coaster. Love like yours will actually come my way. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Love like yours will actually come my way. [MUSIC] This is good. I told you, they're the best. [MUSIC] Well, give us a chance. We've only just started the show. David and Trina, this is especially for you too. [MUSIC] Dusty spring boat, some of your loving. Some. [MUSIC] You gotta give me some, give me some of your loving. You gotta give me some of your loving. No, I'm not a greedy girl. I don't need a world. Just give me some of your loving. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Now I don't expect you to guarantee your fame and devotion to only me. I'm aware you've got a lot of white oats to sow. But baby, when I need you don't tell me more. You gotta give me some, give me some, give me some, give me some, give me some of your loving. No, I'm not a jealous child. You gotta give me some, give me some, give me some of your loving. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. [MUSIC] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. [MUSIC] I know a man likes to feel that he's been around. It's all he decides to stand down. I fold down, someday you're gonna feel that way too. But baby, just remember, I'm dead, you do. You gotta give me some, give me some, give me some. You gotta give me some, give me some of your loving. No, I'm not a greedy girl. I don't need the world. Give me some, give me some, give me some, give me some, give me some of your loving. Give me some, give me some, give me some, give me some of your loving. You gotta give me some, give me some of your loving. Dusty Springfield, therefore, I don't really have that in the playlist, and you ask for it. You read my memory, you really do. It's great to have your company, especially for you, David and Trina. There's a voice message coming in from Helmutte over in Germany. I'll listen to that in just a moment. But first of all, let's get these out of the way. No, first of all, more importantly, let's tell you why I played Night Flight to Venus, because it's brought back special memories to me. And that's what I've been asking you for, and you're flooding them in already, which is great news. And I think a tune that brings back a memory of something odd, funny, romantic, holiday, parents, Christmas, whatever you like. And of course, that particular song, I was going on a very, very special business trip with a colleague who was a director of another company. And I met him at Peterborough Station, and he was a real character. He had a real sporty car with a cassette player. That's how long the guy it was. And when I got in the car, what was it started off, that Night Flight to Venus. And as soon as the introduction finished, room off we went, and we were 200 miles before you knew it. We had a great time, and we had a good business trip as well. So they're well. Right, so that's the reason I played that, and let's have some of your reasons as well. So I love to know all about you. Yes, the intro! Gonna do number one and two for you. Here's number one. And number two. I don't know where my baby is. And number one for the first half executive, because we're having two execs now. One in the first half and one in the second half. So here's the first half executive for you. Who sings it? And what's it related to? And what shows did he do? Anything you can give me on that song. And he acted in his own songs as well. How do you contact us? Contact Big L Radio now. Phone. Oh, one, two, five, five, eight, oh, eight, one, one, three. Female. Studio@biglradio.co.uk.

This is the place we used to go. With romantic music and the lights down low. And as you stand there amazed at the door. And you wonder what all this is for. It's just a simple thing. I'm meeting you. And maybe that I don't. 'Cause there's something that you should know. It's that I've been missing you. Of all that words can say. And I, I'm thinking of it every day. And the time we find. Just dancing nice and slow. And I said, "Nah, I found you." I never let go. There is no reason to the things that we do. We can break our heart with just a word or two. Take a lifetime to apologize. When the one you loved in front of your eyes. And I will fall to my knees like a fool. If it's the only way I get them through. You see if I, you are beautiful. Someone else has known you too. So there's only one thing to do. Tell you, I've been missing you. Of all that words can say. And I, I've been thinking of it every day. Well tonight, I'll die. For dancing nice and slow. Because now I found you. I never let go. No, now I found you. I never let you. You see if I, I've been missing you. You see if I've been missing you. You see if I, I've been missing you. You see if I've been missing you. You see if I, I've been missing you. You see if I, I've been missing you. You see if I, I've been missing you.

I'm lonely as can be. I need you. Said you had a thing or two to tell me. How was I to know you would upset me? I didn't realize as I looked in your eyes. You told me, oh yes you told me. You don't want my love anymore. That's when it hurt me. I feel it like this. I just can't go on anymore. Please remember how I feel about you. I could never really live without you. So come on back and see. Just what you mean to me. I need you. But when you told me. You don't want my love anymore. That's when it hurt me. I feel it like this. I just can't go on anymore.

We stayed till the end and caught the first train back the early morning train, the paper train, the work train, back to home and Mum and Dad were okay about it. They liked and trusted the boyfriend immensely. Sadly, Creme were only together for two years, 66 to 68. But there's a group called Son of Creme Relatives. And there certainly is and they're touring now as well. Here's your memory for you and here's your tune, Marian. And yes, we've let you off being late. You can always listen to the beginning on listen again if you want to. Oh, that's the wrong track. Sorry, just a bit. Let's get it. Here it is. Oh, well. Marian, you've got me all twisted up.

And being excused by her parents as well. A lovely memory for David and Trina. We're on our honeymoon in September 1972 to a ring of North Wales.

I'm just not going to do it there, I'm not going to do it there, I'm going to take that off there No, I'll have to remember it for you then Anita, when she left her education they bought her a present And they wrapped it up in layers and layers and layers of tissue paper And she unwrapped it and it was a record in the middle there for her Come up and see me sometime by Steve Harley And when she left the head came out and said, "Oh darling, are you really leaving us?" And Anita thought that was really funny so she said, "Could you play, make me smile, come up and see me sometime?" Here it is, just for you [Music] You've done it all, you've walked your memory cold You've spoken the game no matter what you say On the metal, what a ball How can you tell so many love? Come up and see me, make me smile I'll do what you want, running wild There's nothing left, all gone and run away Maybe you'll carry for quite It's just a test, a game for us to play When I lose, it's hard to smile Resist, resist History itself, you have to have all Come up and see me, make me smile I'll do what you want, running wild [Music] There ain't no more, you've taken everything I believe in my love Can you ignore my faith in everything? Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth Away, away And don't say, maybe you'll try Come up and see me, make me smile I'll do what you want, running wild [Music] Come up and see me, make me smile I'll do what you want, running wild [Music] Right, they'll guess the intros, we're running a bit behind on those Cause there's some lovely messages coming in with your memories I should spread

guitar I am following the river down the highway through the cradle of the Civil War I'm on Graceland, Graceland, and the Memphis, Tennessee, I'm on Graceland [Music] Poor boys and pilgrims with families and we are going to Graceland [Music] My traveling from valley to nine years old is the child of my first marriage [Music] She comes back to tell me she's gone As if I didn't know that, as if I didn't know my own bed If I'd never noticed the way she brushed her hair on her forehead She said losing love, it's like a window in your heart Everybody sees your blown apart Everybody sees the window I'm on Graceland Memphis, Tennessee, I'm on Graceland [Music] Poor boys and pilgrims with families and we are going to Graceland [Music] And my traveling from back to hosting empty sockets I'm looking at coastal empties [Music] [Music] There is a girl in New York City who calls herself a human trampoline [Music] Sometimes when I'm falling, flying, tumbling and turning where I say, "Whoa, so this is what she means" She means we're bouncing into Graceland And I see losing love, it's like a window in your heart Everybody sees your blown apart Everybody feels the window [Music] For reasons I cannot explain, there's some part of me who wants to see Graceland And I'm maybe obliged to defend every love, every ending more Maybe there's no obligations now Maybe I'm a reason to believe that we all will be received in Graceland [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Graceland there, Paul Simon, number one in "Guess the intro" Also, of course, was called "All Around the World" by Lisa Stansfield She

First day at school. Here we go. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Deep inside the forest into another land here is your life home. We are staying here forever in the beauty of the flame and all alone. We keep on hoping. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. It's over. We don't have a run in the neighborhood. Maybe. Maybe. It's over. There's a time we'll call our home. Give in free and harmony in the magic field. Take me home. Take me home. Take me home. Dreaming of another time when we walk with dignity. Here in the morning sun we are waiting for the summer to remind us of the day. When we share a world of wonder of all maybe. There's a world we don't have a run. Maybe. There's a time we'll call our home. Give in free and harmony in the magic field. Take me home. Take me home. Yeah. [Music] Yeah. Maybe. There's a world we don't have a run. Maybe. There's a time we'll call our home. Give in free and harmony in the magic field. Take me home. Take me home. [Music] We are walking through a land where every living thing is beautiful. Why does it tend to him? We are calling for so sadly on the whisper of the wind. And we stand with the dying message of all of us. Maybe. There's a world we don't have a run. Maybe. There's a time we'll call our home. Give in free and harmony in the magic field. Take me home. [Music] There we are. Take me home, man. It's a live version for you there. I've got your message and I'll repeat it another time for you as I promised as well. You've got a full house as well. Well done to you. No messing about with songs with you is there. We're here for you. 24 hours a day. 24 hours a day. Big girl. And Jimmy and Bexley Heath of course. Here's your request. Your patience has overwhelmed me. I've got an answer message from you. Six and a half seconds long to say my answer to the executive is and then it cuts off. You better try again my friend. Here's your good morning sunshine. Bye Oliver.

Good morning Sunshine, and let's hope there will be plenty of that as well by Oliver Foyer there, and I hope you enjoyed that, Jimmy. Well worth waiting for, lovely track, that one, I really enjoyed it. All right, here's a lovely track for you by Marvin Gaye, a Motown, of course, but it's very unusual. See what you think to this, it's called What's New. Yes, it's Marvin Gaye. What's new, how is the world treating you? You haven't changed a bit, lovely as ever, I must admit. What's new, how did that old man come through? We haven't met since then, Gee, but it's nice to see you again. What's new, and probably I'm bored of you, but seeing you is great, and you're sweet to all of your men. I understand, I've been a part of my acting, what's new, of course you would love. I haven't changed, I still love you so. I understand, I've been a part of my asking, what's new, of course you could love. I haven't changed, I still love you so. For my darling, I still love you so. Well, and that was Aubrey Jack, I hope you enjoyed that very much indeed. She was a singer, songwriter, musician and an activist, and she played mostly contemporary folk music, including songs of protest and of social justice as well. She has performed publicly for over 60 years, releasing more than 30 albums. Here's a sample of her work, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down. Her true cane is my name, and I drove on the dandel train. Till so much cavalry came and tore up the tracks again. In the winter of '65, with her hungry just barely alive. I took the train to Richmond that fell, it was a time, I remember all so well. And all the bells were ringing, they'd go home, they'd sit down, and all the bells were ringing. They'd go home, they'd sit down, they'd sit down, they'd sit down. They'd sit down, they'd sit down, they'd sit down, they'd sit down, they'd sit down. And I don't care if the money's no good, just take what you need and leave the rest, but they should never have taken the very best. For God, they'd go home, they'd sit down, and all the bells were ringing, and all the bells were ringing, they'd go home, they'd sit down. And all the people were singing, they went nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Like my father before me, I'm a working man. And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand, while he was just 18, proud and brave. But a Yankee laid him in his grave, I swear by the blood below my feet, you can't raise the cane back up when it's in the feed. And I, they'd go home, they'd sit down, and all the bells were ringing, and all the bells were ringing, they'd go home, they'd sit down. And all the people were singing, they went nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Anita, thank you for your message on that, and I'm glad you enjoyed that trek. And of course, the Marvin Gaye, a bit of a special Marvin Gaye there. You really wouldn't think it was him unless I told you, but I'm telling you the truth. No Borg is here. And of course Joan Byers, what a great singer, a bit of a protest singer. And she was a very good friend of another protest singer, a folk singer guy, yes as well, very close friends. A couple of shows not to miss, or you don't miss any of them really. Gary Jackson here to let you know that I'll be live on The Big L, every weekday from 6 to 7 p.m. And as extra punishment for you, 4 till 7 p.m. on Wednesdays. Features like cryptic connections, packed to fronts and vintage tunes may all turn up, as I hope you will together with your requests. That's 6 to 7 and 4 to 7 on Wednesdays only, on The Big L. I guess a lot of talking to a quick shout, didn't they? Well done, Gary Jackson, and he will be proceeding the Wednesday show now, not the Tuesday show, not the, or no Thursdays, doing Thursdays instead of Wednesdays to help feel trolled out. Hello, I'm Eric here, and if I need to join me here on The Big L International, every Saturday night at 10 for two hours of rock and roll from the 50s and 60s, plus some vintage motor and so on. We call it rock and roll Saturday, bringing back the golden years of rock and roll. Join me Saturday's at 10 here on The Big L International. Come on and let the good time roll. And the first executive track will be played at the end of the show for you, along with the first one in the second half. Do it again by the Beach Boys, and well done to Anita, Jimmy, David and Trina, Patrika, Helmut, Claire, she's got a full house as well as Anita. Any phone calls, I don't know. Maggie and Brixham, Martin in Norwich, Jay and Lysdorf, and of course Simon D as well. ♪ ♪ It's automatic and I'm talking with old friends and conversation ♪ ♪ For two girls we knew when their hair was soft and warm ♪ ♪ And the beach was a place to go ♪ ♪ ♪ The sun can't rise and the weight of sunshine ♪ All the girls in the middle coast might warm up the rest In the end, yeah, in the end [Music] With that girl, the lonely sea looks good with her life Make sure that time's warm out of size [Music] [Music] Well, I've been thinking about all the places we've served and danced in All the faces we've missed so last year back together and do it again [Music] The beach boy is there and I do it again and we do it We'll do it all over again next Wednesday evening for you as well And of course, the last guest the intro was Can't get by without you by the real thing A few people found that one a bit tough But nevertheless, thanks for trying and thank you for all your cooperation A lovely story this evening and the executive was drift away by Adobe Grey So I'll see you all again on Friday And I'll be covering for Ray Heaven on Tuesday between 4 and 6 Meanwhile, I'm going to drift away I'll see you on Friday Steve James will be looking after you [Music] As always Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain You know that's a game that I hate to lose And I'm feeling the strain Ain't it a shame Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll as drift away Yeah, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll as drift away [Music] Again and the thing that I'm wasting time I don't understand the things I do The world outside looks so unkind So I'm counting on you To carry me through Come on, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll as drift away Yeah, give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll as drift away Thanks so much for your company this evening All your wonderful stories and memories of twisting in the aisles And leaving school and joining school And things like that, they were great stories, they really were And of course, honeymoon of music for David and Trina as well I'll see you on Friday, drive time between 4 and 6 And I'll be sitting in for Ray Heaven on Tuesday [Music] And of course, Mary and Walker, your lovely story about going up to London And seeing a show with Cream That's a bit special It's a night, God bless, leave you with Steve [Music] So I wanna get lost in your rock and roll as drift away [Music] Give me the beat boys and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll as drift
