It's a Feelgood Friday Funkarama

Let Craig Charles provide your ultimate Friday night party playlist as he spins his way through seven decades of the finest funk and soul tunes for your listening pleasure.

Let Craig Charles provide your ultimate Friday night party playlist (I know, a Friday!) as he spins his way through seven decades of the finest funk and soul tunes for your listening pleasure. If it feels like funk and sounds like soul it'll be The Craig Charles House Party.

There's a Cover From Another Brother or indeed Mother and You Heard It Here First, a cracking cover version and a rarely-heard original back-to-back that'll have you thinking 'I didn't know they did that first!' Tonight we hear the original version of a Stevie Wonder classic, and Nostalgia 77 funk up The White Stripes!

There's a long long long, let's go all the way, musical marathon of a song in our Version Excursion after 11pm, and tonight it's a 12" belter courtesy of Nuyorican Soul and Jocelyn Brown.

And we'll take the party out of the studio and onto the street when we go to Hip-Hop Heaven at half-eleven! It's all about the DDD's tonight, with Dimples D. and De La Soul.
