Dave continues his journey through dance, getting deep into house music. Plus Soul II Soul's Jazzie B champions his most cherished vinyl and Roger Sanchez is the godlike DJ.

Dave continues his journey through dance - this week he's DEEP into house, with a selection of the finest mid-to-late 80s house tunes.

Also on tonight's show, Soul II Soul's Jazzie B champions his most cherished vinyl record - a track which influenced the sound of his own seminal album, 'Club Classic, Volume One'. That album shot Soul II Soul to fame in the summer of '89, and featured the UK Top Ten hits, 'Keep On Moving' and 'Back to Life' - but which track was its musical inspiration?

This week's godlike DJ is the Grammy award-winning Roger Sanchez. One of the biggest names of the late 80s New York house scene, Roger went on to huge international success, not only as a DJ, but also making his own music, scoring a No 1 hit in the UK in the year 2001 with the Toto-sampling 'Another Chance'. Roger gives us the low-down on his career high points, and chooses a UK dance track as his Hugely Influential Dance Tune.
