We'll get together, we'll play some old songs, we'll play some new songs and we'll thoroughly entertain your Saturday afternoon. Join me this week from 2. Okay, so I'm back with you and we've got to three more requests to play. So it's the Motown show. We do it every Monday between 9 p.m. and 10 and a couple of little messages for you. If you didn't hear the Saturday night extravaganza show, it was featuring the R&I story and we had a very heavily edited version of it just to give you the highlights of R&I and that is on listen again. So if you missed it and you would like to hear it as it is a special free radio type program, it's on listen again. All right and on Wednesday we're going to be playing all tracks from the 70s again and lots of them are connected with offshore radio. So that's coming up for you on Wednesday. No requests on Wednesday because we've got a special show again but we'll be back to the normal requests next Saturday. The way we were, this is Gladys Knight and her pips and it's especially for Peter over there in Plymouth. Hey you know everybody's talking about the good old days right? Everybody, the good old days, the good old days. Well let's talk about the good old days. Come to think of it as bad as we think they are. These will become the good old days for our children. But why don't we uh, try to remember that kind of September when, when life was slow and oh, so mellow. Try to remember. And if you remember then follow. Oh what does it seem that the past is always better? We look back and we think the winters were warmer, the grass was greener, the skies were bluer and smiles were bright. Can it be that it was all so simple and all has time rewritten every line? And if we had the chance to do it all again tell me what we could win. Memory. Like the corners of my mind. Misty watercolor memories of the way we were. Scattered pictures of the smiles we lived behind. Smiles we gave to one another. For the way we were. I can't feel that it was all so simple then. All has time rewritten every line. And if we had the chance to do it all again tell me what we could win. Memories may be beautiful and new. What's too painful to remember? We simply choose to forget. And if we had the chance to do it all again tell me what we could win. And if we had the chance to do it all again tell me what we could win. And if we had the chance to do it all again tell me what we could win. And if we had the chance to do it all again tell me what we could win. Remember the way we were. Oh what a stunning live performance there from Gladys Knight and has she got such a wonderful voice. Absolutely fantastic. I think one of the best Motown singers ever. She's just so wonderful. Right so we've not got many competition entries tonight so let's play again for you. It's two super groups. They're both Motown groups obviously and we want to know the name of the song and who it's by. Contact Big L Radio now. Phone. Well a clue for the name of the song. Well they were reaching out at one time. That's one of the groups and the other group is well that what the Daleks used to say they were. If you followed the story of Doctor Who the Daleks used to say they were a word beginning with this and that's the name of the other group that we're looking for tonight. All right so that's the second request there for Peter. Marvelists for you now for Tina. What's easy for two is hard for one. I wanna talk with you but it's up to you to say come on baby you know hurry up. I'm so crazy because I walk all along the pond. It's just no fun. Oh what you can't easily do. What you can't easily do. You're so hard to be done by one. Now I'm sure that you know that I love you with all of my heart. All I love that's true. Will it take two to start? Yeah yeah. I wanna do my share. My share. My share. To show you that I can. But what's out in the wheel? Never do. You gotta show me that you love me too. Cause falling in love all along. It's just no fun. No. What you can't easily do. I want to can't easily do. It's so hard to be done by one. Now listen one can be the love of baby slowly. Two can build a love of baby. One can make a look and start it. Two can make it last. Oh yeah. So come on and take me. I'll be handed. Leave me under that. Reach a man. Cross the gallery. We'll do all the things that you do. Yeah. But two can easily do. But you know what you can do. It's so hard to be done by one. One two can do. One two can do. It's so hard. So that was a marvel. That's especially for Tina. And we just had a message coming from John over there in Hammersmith. And yes you've got the right answer. Well done. So we're going to carry on with another request now then. Now this is for Ron in Dulwich. 1973. And it's one entitled "Hallelujah Day" by the Jackson Five. If you want any requests do let me know. Though they must be Motown. Hallelujah day. See hallelujah. Love is on its way. It's hallelujah. Children gather right now. Clap your hands and sing. Battle Sun is shining down high. So the bells are going to ring. Yes they will now. Have to feed that way of hope. So finally so but why? They gonna sing my brother's song. It's gonna be alright. It's hallelujah day. Sing hallelujah. Love is on its way. It's hallelujah. Hallelujah day. Sing hallelujah. Hallelujah day. Sing hallelujah. We all come together. It's just time to roll. We can make this life forever. If you feel it in your soul. Nobody found the key. Somebody wrote the letter for soul. Now they'll be dancing in the street. This is the name we've been waiting for. Sing hallelujah. Sing hallelujah. Sing hallelujah. Everybody get together. Put your hands like this. Sing along with the jack of five yes. Sing hallelujah. Sing hallelujah. [Music] That's the Jackson 5 there and hallelujah date especially for Ron in Dottage. [Music] I've got a Ron cough so if I do cough you'll have to excuse me. It's quite uncomfortable actually so if I'm sounding a bit wheezy that's the reason why. I've got a nasty cough and it's very humid here, very sort of muggy here in the heritage today. So let's hope it's a little bit more fresh tomorrow. We could do with the thunderstorm I suppose just to clear the air a little bit couldn't we. Did you know we have a listen again page? What? It's a page on the website. What's the website? Just go to biglradio.co.uk and click on listen again. Listen again? That's right click on listen again. Listen again. Yes listen again and you can hear your favorite programs again.

We do it every Monday from 9 o'clock until 10. Okay so what have we got next then? Let me see. I'm not queued up am I? Silly me eh? Okay right we've got to Baby Love. This is Diana Ross and the Supremes. One of my faves. I know it's played a lot but it's such a great track. [Music] 1964! [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Baby Love. My Baby Love. One must be a whole step to write my love. All of my whole life you go. I know that I'm no one but you. Why do me like you do? I get it this near. We do it. We need to hold you once again my love. If you want to embrace my love, don't throw a love away. Please don't do me this way. I'm not happy like they used to do. Show me next hand, that the best of me, my love, my Baby Love. I need you. I need you. Why do you do me like you do? [Music] A record that I remember hearing many times on the very beginnings of Radio Caroline. What a fabulous record it is. So we've still only got two competition entries. The name of the groups, two super groups. One of them did a song called Bernadette. That's a clue for the name of one of the groups and the other group. Think of the dialects, what they used to call themselves. Something beginning with S. That's the name of the other group and the name of the song. They're talking all about love and telling you, you really should have it. You know, so that's a clue and let's play it for you. [Music] Contact Big L Radio now. Phone. Oh, one, two, five, five, eight, oh eight, one, one, three. [Music] So on the Wednesday drive time show, it's going to be featuring a lot of tracks that were played on the Offshore radio stations, including Veronica and Atlantis and Ira and I, of course. So that's a special show coming up for you on Wednesday from 4pm until six. No requests, but we'll be doing the requests again starting on Saturday. Phil troll music from the Motor City, the sound of Motown. So, only two entries so far. 1967. Hmm. Now, Phil troll will play you and track you probably haven't heard for quite a long time. [Music] You made me so very happy this is Brenda Holloway. [Music] I loved my love before gave up and closed the door. But you say, try just once more. I told you for the one and I'm having so much fun. You treated me so kind. I'm about to know my mind. You made me so very happy. I'm so glad you came into my love. [Music] We've ever been so welcome to. But we came to you. I've spent my whole life with you. How you came into control. You touched my very soul. You always showed me that loving you is where it's at. You made me so very happy. I'm so glad you came into my love. [Music] You made me so very happy. I'm so glad you came into my love. [Music] I love you so much it seems that you're even in my dream. I hear you calling me. I'm so in love with you. All I ever want to do is jump. Thank you baby. Thank you, thank you baby. You made me so glad you came into my love. You made me so very happy. I'm so glad you came into my love. Thank you baby. You made me so very happy. I'm so glad you came into my love. I'm so glad you came into me. Great version by Brenda Holloway and Blood, Sweat and Tears. I think they were the other people who had a hit with that record. Both good versions. So that's it. You made me so very happy. [Music] It certainly does. [Music] Tell your smart speaker to play big L radio and hear the best oldies all day long. It's got to be a miracle this thing called love. It's Marvin Gaye with Kim Weston. [Music] 1964. Still only two competition entries. [Music] [Music] All it takes is too hard, it's the kid. Brinkle just a little tenderness there. And like the tiny grades of sand that build a mountain so high. Each tender moment builds love between the girl and guy. It's got to be a miracle this thing called. Never, never, never let go this thing called love. [Music] Two lonely people we use to be. [Music] It seems that we will be happy ever after. All it takes is too hard, it's not enough. They've got to hold you baby and never let go. [Music] We know that heaven must be like this. It's got to be a miracle this thing called love. Never, never, never let go this thing called love. I used to wonder how it's going. Like a ship in a diplomacy trying to get home. When we found each other, every cloud will fade. [Music] [Music] All it takes is just a little time. [Music] And a few tears to love is worship. And every sweet word that's ever been said. It's got to be a miracle this thing called love. Never, never, never let go this thing called love. [Music] Long lonely hours we once knew. We had each other and knew what life's worth. Our love is gone and we've never left. [Music] Never, never, never let go this thing called love. [Music] Don't think I've heard that one before actually, that was Kim Weston with Marvin Gaye of course. And a nice little record for you. So we've still only got two competition entries. I've got one more email just come in, I'm going to have a look at that in a minute. [Music] Whenever news breaks, teacher stories news is there.

I hope they're managing to help you for whatever's stuck in whatever's wrong with you. I hope they get it sorted for you. All right, so let me see what have we got now. This is Stevie Wonder this time with an LP track called "Too High". We played it a little while ago, but so we didn't get around to playing all of it because the time ran out. So I thought I'd play it again. It's a great record. Have a listen. See what you think. [Music] It's from Innovisions. [Music] "Too High, Too High, But Into The Sky" She's a girl in a dream. She's a four-eyed cartoon monster on a TV screen. She takes another puff and says it's a crazy scene. The bread is green. She's a tangerine. [Music] I'm too high. I'm too high. I'll go ahead and left the ground. [Music] I'm too high. I'm too high. I've never, ever come down. [Music] She's a girl in a life. But it was a superficial paradise. She had a chance to make it big more than once or twice. But it all dies. She wasn't very nice. [Music] [Music] [Music] I'm too high. I'm too high. I'm too high. I'm too high. I'm too high. I'm too high. I feel like I'm about to die. [Music] She's a girl in a life. I guess that I've got to hurt her in life. I did you use a new love of the girl today. She passed away. I did a friend saying, yeah. [Music] They said she's too high. I'm too high. I gave him love. [Music] [Music] So Charles wants to say hi to all the staff at Whips Cross. And Ron, I'm sorry to hear about your friend who's still not well. Ian, if you are listening, I do hope that you'll be out of hospital soon. So competition for the very last time then.
