I like the soul/funk theme in this list. I do know about 16 of the songs in this list, and from what I've heard so far of the songs I didn't know, this may be top to bottom one of the most listenable so far.

I still have more listening to do before posting my list, though.

Thanks Radhi. :)

I'll have a go at it tomorrow when I'm (hopefully) a bit brighter. I DO have to have the songs in front of me and 'whittle' them down. Maybe Notepad will be the answer.

Goodnight to you and all my other friends I can see online now. :sleepy:
