Here is what was on offer from the DJ booth last night before and and
after Bettye. Lots of classics along with plenty of top quality deep cuts tracks , with an emphasis on what was coming out of Detroit and
Memphis during the 60's.



After the show Bettye told me that she enjoyed listening to them in her dressing room before going on stage.



Feel free to ask about any of the tracks played.
