After the sad news of Terry Wogan this morning much has been said by many about the music he liked and introduced us to. I'm sure I won't be the only one to have more than a few well and not so well known tracks that remind me of the great man.
So I thought perhaps we could make up a list that would make a good compilation playlist. One of mine is Harry by Catherine Howe

Add yours as and when.

Listening to the 2 tribute shows this morning showed what great taste in music he had.
I wonder if a compilation could be released in aid of Macmillan cancer fund or something similar. |

Many have been played on the radio today, such as 'Closest Thing To Crazy' by Katy Melua. This was a favourite of my dear late mother too. Another that I associate with Wake Up To wogan is 'Twisting By The Pool' by Dire Straits. _________________ Lord Evan Elpuss, Your ideal job is a Lumberjack. |

Lovely song, Ken finished his show with it on Monday and you could hear the emotion in his voice, it made me well up. |

Sheer perfection
By the way,Toggy,I think your idea of a CD of Terry's favourite songs,for charity, is a really good one. |
