Smooth is just too bland and anonymous these days. Mike reall knows his stuff and I would rather listen to him and his great Saturday show than watch anything on the TV!!! We want Mike!!!!!!

Whilst Andy Peebles is very good, I miss all the local soul club listings - I'm sure these clubs have lost a lot of custom as a consequence. And I loved his evening shows during the week, he is a pro with a calm approach and mature outlook. Boo, Smooth, going national hasn't helped you one bit.

He actually `introduced` me to Motown and Northern Soul music in the early 70`s. I now have the pleasure of working with him locally.The Soulshow which he was presenting on Smooth was second to none. Mike would promote all the local `Soul Nites` via the programme. When he was on air it was as if he was actually talking to you as an individual. In these times more programmes and D J`S like Mike are needed.` Keeping your SOUL alive` KEEP THE FAITH
