@RalphMcLeanShow @bbcradioulster Can confirm the radio waves completely smoothed over the height difference! 😂 Such a brilliant session, thanks for having me!

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

Have to say this new remake of Twins looks a bit crap! 😂
Star of Jools Holland’s Hootenanny and The Late Late Show, #MuireannBradley joins me in session tonight from 8. Don’t worry..the height difference will sound fine on the radio! 😂 @BradleyMuireann @bbcradioulster

@RalphMcLeanShow Switching off from the madness of the real world and tuning into the brilliance and magicalness of McLean and his Radio Show 📻.

@johnrainey841 Agreed John. That’s a highlight for sure.

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

Diving deep into this 1965 Beatles beauty on the radio show tonight. Is the fancy new boxset worth getting? Find out from 8. #Beatles #RubberSoul

@RalphMcLeanShow Nobody does "Mean and Moody" quite like McLean (musically speaking of course). When it comes to choosing "Cash" and country music 🎶📻🎶 Ralph's the main man to bring music to your ears (literally ). Radio Ulster right this very second. TUNE IN. #RetroRalphReels

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

So good to see @BrendaBKennedy down at the launch of the @SoundOfBelfast festival in the @OhYeahCentre tonight. Brenda’s written a beautiful book about the life of her husband, the great #BapKennedy, and I’m delighted to be hosting the launch night on November 9th. Can’t wait.

Listened to this great radio special. Really interesting to hear all the different styles @DavidBowieReal was experimenting with as a teenager. And @RalphMcLeanShow @bbcradioulster added excellent knowledge & commentary. I love good radio👏

@PaperCloud1 Great @arboristmusic tune that! Well Mark? Is eight right? lol

[Paper-Cloud @PaperCloud1]

@RalphMcLeanShow Listening into the brilliance of Bowie and the magic of McLean 🎶📻🎶. That's a combination your Monday night needs. Tune in 📻 BBC Radio Ulster NOW!!!!. Guaranteed goodness for your ears.

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

It’s Bowie night on the show. Loads of early gems - mostly unheard! - plus some choice DB back catalogue beauts and a few lesser heard covers from the likes of The Cure. Yup, The Cure. C’mon over from 8 sure and get a load of that young fella’s hair! 😂 #DavidBowie

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

This new album of early Bowie..much of it unreleased..is a bit good. Crisp, crunchy snapshots of the artist in his R&B/Mod/Freakbeat finery. Fascinating. Playing stuff from it and DB classics tonight from 8. He looks about nine years old on the cover doesn’t he? 😂 #DavidBowie

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

How do you fancy a Bowie night on Monday? There’s a tidy new album out of previously unheard sides from 1965 called #TheShelTalmyRecordings so I’ll play some stuff from that and you choose the Bowie tunes you want. So hit me with your choices my lovelies. #BowieNight #DavidBowie

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

@PaulWil08237308 Cheers Paul. Love the guys. Enjoy the gig!

[Ralph McLean @RalphMcLeanShow]

So Oasis are Slane bound in 2027? Feel I should open the radio show at 8 with a blast of the boys…what track though? Let me know #Oasis #Slane2027
