Jo Wallace - Heads to the Sky Monthly, Wednesday 6-8pm Soul, Funk, Disco, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Reggae, Ramrock
Jo Wallace presents a show bursting with selections culled from an old notebook from the 90's full of playlists for C90 tapes she compiled for friends and family. From northern soul to hip hop - hold tight, it's a fast ride.
Jo first got into music watching top Mod television show Ready Steady Go in 1964 and after listening to her brother’s blues LP collection including John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters, she found herself lured into the beguiling world of black music. Inheriting a box full of Motown in 1967, she began collecting vinyl in 1969 and in 1973, she landed her dream job and started work in a record shop. A rival record shop recruited her in 1976 and Jo began selling import soul & funk 45’s and her illustrious DJ career started at the same time in a pub in Chatham… and it’s been downhill ever since!
