So, it’s been a while …
What with one thing and another – ok, two of the things are the kids who’ve needed entertaining for the last 6 weeks, and another is my propensity to spend the last 3 Thursdays stuck in a field with no signal, meaning not much time for digging and less for tunes.
As an extra special reward for this, and for the first time in over 160 Three on a Thursday’s, I’m going to double up.
Yes, you heard me.
DOUBLE UP.
6 tunes below the line. Hope you’ve got your listening ears on.

Manic dash on this week, so the pre-ToT drivel is mercifully short.
We’ve got a fest of hip-hop, with some UK Royalty on mellow hip-hop duty, some slightly more underground beats and a classic from the vaults.
Onwards!

Ok, Thursday- here we go
I was seriously considering doing a ‘Room 101’ style Three on Thursday this time round, highlighting 3 tracks I just can’t abide and ceremonially locking them away for eternity.
Thing is, that would have entailed trawling through a sack of utter dross from the Tweetie Song to anything Abba have ever written, rather than actually listening to tunes, y’know, I might actually like…

I’m baaaaaaaaaaaack.
Did you miss me?
