A new name, whose track Way To Go has just been added to Radio 2's C Playlist. There has been a little discussion on the Beeb Messageboard - http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/mbradio2/F4387184?thread=5220134 - and I appear to be in a minority of one.

The link to the songs on myspace is http://www.myspace.com/helenboulding
What does anyone here think?

Hi Ron. When the first song began I thought 'Nora Jones' and then I listened to the other songs. Pleasant enough and a good band too. Her age is given as 108 on the page though! Laughing

I saw her live a few years ago. She looked very good for someone getting birthday cards from Her Majesty! I think she once did a session for Janice Long's show too and wasn't her album R2's 'album of the week' a few months ago?

Yes to both - I missed the live session. On further reflection I think she could be good - it's just the choice of song for single/radio play that is pretty poor.

I recently had the great pleasure of meeting Helen Boulding when she called in to our hospital radio station for an interview during her recent Caffe Noir tour.She's a lovely lady indeed, and I can assure you she's nowhere near 108!!!!
