Marcus Miller is the Rewind Selector

A non-stop party of feel-good dance floor fillers to make you move! Also, Luther Vandross co-writer and Miles Davis collaborator Marcus Miller chooses the tracks that take him back.

A non-stop party of joyful dance floor fillers and brilliant beats to make you feel good. From soulful house to lyrical garage, and rhythmical RnB to awe-inspiring remixes, DJ Spoony's music manifesto is simple, if a track has a good groove that will make your body move, it's in. With tunes from the 70s to the present day, it's all killer and no filler with big dollops of nostalgia to make you smile.

This week's Rewind Selector is Luther Vandross co-writer and Miles Davis collaborator Marcus Miller. The multi-instrumentalist was classically trained as a clarinetist and later learned to play keyboards, saxophone, and guitar. As a session musician, Marcus has played bass on over 500 recordings, appearing on albums by such artists as Michael Jackson, Beyonc茅, Herbie Hancock, Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton, The Crusaders, Frank Sinatra, George Benson, Dr. John, Elton John, Joe Walsh, Jean-Michel Jarre, Grover Washington Jr., Donald Fagen, Bill Withers, Chaka Khan, and LL Cool J, to name a few! Marcus worked very closely with the late, great Luther, writing songs such as 'I Really Didn't Mean It' and 'Power of Love'. The duo also co-wrote 'Jump To It' for Aretha Franklin. Fresh from his appearance at the Love Supreme Jazz Festival last weekend, the Grammy Award winning artist chooses the tracks that take him back to the dancefloors of his youth in New York.

DJ Spoony also serves up two very special mixes to keep the Friday night vibes flowing. Kicking off the show is 'The Good Groove 90s Party Mix' for hot tub discos, car seat dancing and living room sing-alongs everywhere. Then later on, our host takes to the decks live for 'The Good Groove Deep Cuts Mix', a glamorous, high energy selection that will make you want to push back the sofa and dance!
