The third of our UK radio playlist polls leads us to 1Xtra, the BBC's home of black music. Their daytime playlist gets issued every Friday, but for some reason their website reckons it was last updated on July 18. I'm assuming that's a mistake - I've been keeping an eye on it lately and it all seems pretty much up to date (even if Dance Wiv Me is still on there). Ideally, I'd have liked to have found YouTube/Myspace links for all these, but I'm at work right now so I can't get at them. If visitors to this thread could supply links, they'd be most welcome, cos there's a lot here that I don't know but which look rather tasty. In any case, same as before - vote for the one you like the best.
Anyhow - poll runs til this time next week, at which point we move on to Bob Harris Country next week. Suggestions for programmes to poll from then on would be more than welcome. I know Marcello's already suggested Westwood, but I think I'll hold off for three or four weeks on that, if only cos I'd imagine there'll be a large amount of overlap between this poll and that one; I think I'll be going for One Of Them Dance Shows or Late Junction for the poll after next, but further suggestions welcome.
