Marisha Wallace is the Rewind Selector!

Available for 27 days

DJ Spoony serves up a brilliant selection of classic soul, disco, soulful house, R&B, funk, UK garage, reggae, hip-hop, doo-wop, yacht rock and more. New feature 'Night Fever' got off to a roaring start last week as we went back to some choice 1970s Essex night spots. Every Tuesday a Good Groover takes us back to a treasured club night of their past, whether they were grooving in 70s discotheques, were getting on down in the 80s at the Pink Coconut or Tuxedo Princess, or were raving in the super clubs of the 90s and 00s. We'll get a sense of the lost sights, smells and sounds of the UK's nightlife, whether it was at a local venue or somewhere our listener travelled miles to get to. To share your tales and tunes email spoony@bbc.co.uk. Tuesday night is also Rewind Selector night, where a musician, celebrity or Good Groove listener chooses the tracks that take them back to the dance floors of their youth. Tonight, Broadway and West End theatre star Marisha Wallace picks the tunes and shares her memories. Marisha has become one of the West End’s most celebrated leading ladies, renowned for her powerhouse vocals and captivating stage presence.
