playing Gladys Knight, The Drifters, Isaac Hayes, The Stylistics, Johnny Mathis on the lounge stereo. The crackle of the needle on the rotating vinyl disc and then there was magic!\u00a0<\/p><p>Like so many people those early childhood sounds are still the ones that I love so much now. Into the eighties and my teenage years. So much fabulous music that completely cemented my love of Soul as a genre. When school friends were firmly into the New Romantics, I was a Luther and Freddie Jackson girl!\u00a0<\/p><p>The inspiration for the Love Lounge\u2019s monthly show, It\u2019s Time for Love, started with a conversation about 80s soul nights and the wonderful slow tracks that you\u2019d hear once all the serious dancing had been done. You know the ones\u2026the boy comes over and asks the girl for a slow dance (or if super brave the girl might ask the boy!) The songs that love was made, relationships were born, hearts were broken and memories made. Whatever the occasion we all have our own songs, special to us.<\/p><p>So followed the idea, two hours of radio packed full of love songs and mellow sounds (new and old). Not much DJ chat, just an opportunity to lose oneself in fantastic music and meaningful lyrics that do all of the talking that&#8217;s needed anyway.<\/p><p>My show &#8216;Love Lounge&#8217; is on the 3rd Thursday each month.<\/p><p><a href=\"mailto:loraine@soulgrooveradio.co.uk\">loraine@soulgrooveradio.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5dec2f6 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5dec2f6\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-15becd8\" data-id=\"15becd8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8dad8b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8dad8b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>\u00a9 Copyright 2026 Soul Groove Radio Ltd 13253396 | All Rights Reserved | Site by SGR<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Soul Groove Radio logo is a registered Trademark and no reproduction can be made without written permission.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My love of soul music goes way back into my early childhood\u2026listening to my mum playing Gladys Knight, The Drifters, Isaac Hayes, The Stylistics, Johnny Mathis on the lounge stereo.
