Episode description
Jonathan Joseph, DJ Spoony to his friends, is someone who spends his life selecting music – and has just taken over the late-night slot on Radio 2.
Born in Hackney in the early 1970s to British West Indian parents, he loved music from an early age and quickly moved from underground pirate radio stations in the 90's before bringing garage music to Radio 1.
At Christmas he revealed that he’d recently undergone emergency surgery for a bleed on the brain. He says music helped him recover.
So what then has he chosen as his Inheritance Tracks.
Inherited: Time is the Master by John Holt Pass on: Gabriel by Roy Davis Jr.
