CLOSE

Last night, I found myself missing the Ranking Miss P.

In the late 80s, her Sunday night show on Radio 1 was essential listening. Miss P was the first DJ to bring reggae to a national audience and, because her programme was on quite late, she played a lot of Lover’s Rock. This slower, more romantic style of reggae was perfect for an end-of-the weekend wind-down. We’re all now in need of an end-of-year wind-down, and these laid-back rhythms work like an aural massage. Close your eyes for a couple of minutes and let it take you a million miles from Christmas.
