Guys,

Just a quick heads-up that there will be no new "Music Box" tonight........Starpoint are going to re-run an old show.......possibly the Vick Lavender interview from last summer. If you didn't ever catch that, then it really is interesting to hear what Vick had to say.........and Colin Curtis & Dr Bob Jones "on the wire" too.


Cheers,

Hi everyone,

After lots of consideration, I’ve finally decided to take a break from radio. It’s not a decision I’ve taken lightly but it is one that has been looming for a little while now.

Accumulation of various factors have lead to this, which I won’t bore you with, but I would just like to thank everyone for listening over the last 5 years or so to my monthly instalments on Starpoint, and thank Carl for the opportunity and the support throughout that period. Also thanks to followers of the podcasts. I haven’t decided what to do about the podcast site yet, my inclination is to keep it going and maybe put some older shows up from before the days of the podcast. Also I may pop up here and there with the odd one off show for Starpoint, though I haven’t discussed this with the station yet.

Thanks of course to the artists who provide us with all this wonderful music: without them there would be no us and we should always remember that. Specific thanks to those that have sent music for consideration for the show. I would encourage that to continue as I’ll still be doing the record reviews and various gigs, so if an artist you feel it’s worthwhile then carry on feeding me!!

So, with a touch of sadness I say farewell to the radio, but would like to think it really is only farewell and not goodbye forever. Who knows, one day I might come back bigger and better with a more regular show, when life affords me the time to do so in a dedicated manner.

I have to sign off by saying that, whatever its popularity and following, I have always been immensely proud of the ethos of The Music Box in playing new music across the whole spectrum of soul, soulful dance, deep house, southern soul etc, etc. Not everyone’s cup of tea trying to cover all that in the same two hours I know, but it reflects ME and my wide taste, and this has always been important to me as it’s specialist internet radio, not national radio where I’m trying to taylor the music to max out the listenership.

Unlike when I first started the show, there are now numerous shows on numerous stations to cater for our needs, so you won’t miss me too much. There still aren’t that many though, which cover such a musical spectrum as The Music Box did.


Ciao,
Mark R

Just a quick heads up folks that I'm back in the hot-seat this coming Sunday, 22nd July with The Music Box here on Starpoint.

I'm looking forward to being back behind that studio mic, and hope that some of you can join me between 12 & 2pm UK time for some great music in the usual Music Box style, covering the styles and tempo's, though on this occasion including some choice oldies in amongst the new tackle! )


Cheers,
Mark R
