Organized by mood, activity, decade and genre to make it easy to find something that’s the perfect soundtrack for any moment.The conditions that made Ken Bruce’s move from BBC Radio 2 to middays at Greatest Hits Radio a national news story for the past three months would be hard to replicate in North America.
