SMALL TOWN TALK
Music To Burn Your Ears
From the Wild Welsh Coast, Doctor Polyvinyl Pete treats you to an overdose of his amazing record collection - and much, much more.
Each month he delves into his dusty vaults to bring you the best of the best, from Rockabilly, R&B, Rock 'n' Roll, Blues, Soul, Reggae and 60's Garage, through Folk-Rock and the British Invasion.
You will hear anecdotes and reflections on the music and very occasionally, he may play something new, but don't expect to get the stuff you hear on the radio.
