Oooee!
Sam Ford and Trudi Green are our special guests in studio from 3.15pm, and it’s a soulsational time for them with the release of their cool and groovy new album OOOEE! on the horizon. We have the pleasure to be playing it in entirety.
They’re having a sweet-treats album release concert at Point Chevalier RSA on Sunday, April 30. Get in quick for tickets, as the venue has limited capacity:

OOOEE! (Choice/Soulahula Music, 2023) is a classy, earthly, Auckland soul record, and you’re also stepping into Memphis and New Orleans origins for inspiration. Sam Ford and Trudi Green and the SOULAHULA Band – Chris Nielson, Ernie Semu, Neil Hannan, Tim Robinson, and special guests Jeremy Dart and John Gibson.
We have Garth Cartwright, the renowned London-based NZ journalist and music and culture writer, to thank for putting us in contact with Sam and Trudi. Cheers, mate.
Sam and Trudi were in The Neighbours, the merry band of Kiwi musical troubadours of the early 1980s, and led by our Soul Brother No. 1, the late Rick Bryant, they played every town in this lush and fair land delighting crowds with their original soul n’ country and rhythm n’ blues, complete with brass. They went everywhere.
The Neighbours were the first band I saw live in a pub – upstairs at The Gluepot, Ponsonby Three Lamps, in 1983. Aged 17, three years under the legal drinking age, that gig led to a lifetime love of live concert performances in music venues around this mixed up crazy rock n’ roll world. My 40th anniversary year!
In those days, it took 20-30 minutes’ drive from New Windsor to Ponsonby, you could get a street park on Ponsonby Rd, the room was dark and stunk of sweet booze and cigarette smoke swirling in the (if you were lucky) air-conditioning, with one end brightened by moody stage lighting and the sound of live music rumbling off the stage and out of well-worn-in PA speakers.
Viva la Gluepot! Now, that was a venue, and the corner public bar downstairs. That was a different exciting world! And there was only one year left for Muldoon. Bad Piggy.
And with Anzac Day approaching, for the remainder of She’ll Be Right we’ll play Kiwi and Aussie tracks.

She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, we’re honoured to say it is Sam Ford and Trudi Green Day. Rain in the forecast - perfect radio listening conditions. – PJ

Does anybody know a charity or organisation who takes wine bottle tops? I used to have somebody who collected them to be used for hip replacements, but have lost touch with them.
