Pretty decent Xposure

Cheers muchly to Sonja who's been in touch recently and has contributed the two files linked below. Together, they constitute one of Kev's appearances covering on the Xposure strand on Xfm. Sonja is fairly certain this show dates from 31/01/05. The music's been removed, but it's a great example of Kev sounding passionate about music and, as a direct result, as relaxed as he ever sounded on radio. Well worth a listen. Cheers for the files!
