This Sunday on The Random Rock Inn

[Ben Fletcher]

I think I'm going to have a summer themed show this Sunday given that it's going to be nearly 30 degrees in and around the studio and also because we're all basking this week! I've already got some summery and bluey numbers in my head but I figured as it's you lot who'll be supping beers and listening in your gardens, you might be able to help ole Uncle Ben.

If anyone has any summery suggestions or requests then please leave them here or email [e-mail].

Summer....simply marvellous*

I dunno why that track reminds me of summer, it just does!

I'm sure I'll think of some more later, I have an appointment with my TV right now to watch the 2 episodes of Lost I recorded last night

[Alison]

Need Your Love So Bad (Fleetwood Mac or Gary Moore)

Lazy Sunday Afternoon (Small Faces)

Stone In Love (Journey)

Anything from Journey's Frontiers album, always reminds me of summer as I bought it in summer 1983 (I feel old )

...and since Liz had an "off the wall" one...Long Hot Summer (Style Council)

Oh... and one thats even more off the wall; Summer The First Time (Bobby Goldsboro) ;D

Ben!!

Can I request Garden Party as Liz suggested? Although I am not really a Marillion fan (I actually turned down the chance to see the real Marillion and when we were offered tickets to an exclusive gig here in Burton- I gave the ticket to my friend instead!) I do like a few of their songs, one of them is Garden Party!!

It's also the most apt song that I can think of round here, everyone seems to be sitting out in the garden this week, perhaps it's becuase we are unsure how long it will last!!

Wot, garden's don't last?

Oh, the nice weather.. sorry... I'll get me coat...

But for me the ultimate, (and probably cheesiest) has to be MR BLUE SKY by E.L.O. ;D

Gad it's 'ot in this anorak!!

Oh heck, does this mean I`m a closet proggie ;D

[Lindsay]

Ben, this is one song that will fit the bill perfectly. It's pure summer time listening and the title say's it all, it's
Blue Tears - Rockin With The Radio.
A total classic

[Ben Fletcher]

Thanks to all those who submitted ideas and took part. If the weather is consistent I will beg, steal and borrow from this thread a bit more!

Cheers

Ben
