Gene Burton
As many of you will know, Former Southampton-
won the EFDSS songwriting competition at Cheltenham with the
song 'The
Gold Standard'. As a result, Gene sent the CD in to Radio Derby
and
'The Gold Standard' was broadcast last Monday 21 May on
the
'Folkwaves' programme presented by Mick Peat and Lester Simpson,
and
broadcast on local radio across four counties around Derby.
This
programme may be heard on BBC 'Listen Again' on the internet
until it is
replaced by next Monday's new version. Gene's song is
right at the end of the
two-hour programme, but the whole is always
worth a listen (and you can fast
forward).

Ulster if
you're into internet radio.
