Playlist: George FM 'All 45s Drive' Tue 3 Jan

There's been a little interest in the "All 45s" Drive Show from Tuesday evening on George FM, with a few folks asking if I could post a playlist up. Well, as it so happens... yes, I can. The afternoon developed into quite the epic when the following DJ cancelled at the last minute, meaning my 3hr Drive Show turned into a full-on 5hr extravaganza - of nothing but 7" vinyl records. No CDs. No USBs. No Serato. Not even any LPs or 12"s. Only 7" vinyl. For 5hrs. And I loved every minute of it...
