Feelgood favourites, hidden gems and fresh new tunes to groove and soothe you. 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. Our genial host also unveils his New 2 Spoon record of the week. This month DJ Spoony is shining a spotlight on items he has selected from the V&A East Museum's first landmark exhibition, The Music Is Black, celebrating Black British Music. Spoony has so far enlisted the help of virtual tour guides Alesha Dixon, Beverley Knight, Sharon D Clarke, Fabio and Grooverider, Mark King of Level 42, Pauline Black of The Selecter, Karen Gibson MBE and curator Jaqueline Spring. Tonight designer Isabell Kristensen talks about Dame Shirley Bassey's gold Oscars dress that is on display.
