It's the Clear the Inbox special!

Let Craig Charles provide your ultimate Saturday 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.

All the music has been chosen by you guys tonight, as we do a little spring cleaning in our 'Clear The Inbox' special! There's still your usual favourites though...

...like 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 song made famous by The Beatles, and Millie Jackson covers a country classic.

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 thing of beauty from Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes..

And we'll take the party out of the studio and onto the street when we go to Hip-Hop Heaven at half-eleven!
