Description
Peter Fleming brings you an entertaining 60 minutes of popular music, mostly gleaned from the 1970’s and 1980’s but not excluding music from any era. There is no other common theme and a gentle ballad may be followed by some heavyish metal followed by some virtuoso guitar work. Who knows?
