Kickstart your weekend on a high with Alex on The Best Time of the Day Show. More lively chat and great music including Album and Record of the Week and Pause for Thought at 3.20am.

The weekend begins here with the Dark Lord who will be playing a fine selection of music and entertaining you with comic conversation through the night. Threads tackled on this Feel Good Friday special include listener's Small Print and the already infamous Threpney Brits. There's also a last play for Album of the Week from Steve Winwood and Record of the Week from Kylie Minogue, as well as a couple of American inspired tunes in Lester's Libraries, and Pause for Thought at 3.20am.
