You can hear Late Night Love every weeknight from 10p.m. However,
Friday’s programmes are a little different. In the first hour I feature the songs that you and I danced to in the Discos in the 70’s and 80’s.
George Benson, Kool and the Gang, Donna Summer, Shalamar to name but a few and then in the second hour, it’s soul ballads all the way through to midnight with artists like Gladys Knight, Luther Vandross, Whitney Houston, Patti Labelle, Harold Melvin and Aretha to name but a few.
