Becoming a fan of the John Creedon show

Not long now till we don’t have to hear this Nick Cave ad anymore.

🙂

Was John aware that Joe Chester’s ‘Bleed To Love Her’ is a cover?

Not a patch on the original…

Very sad.
RIP Johnny

The most played artists on the creedon show this year

Most played songs

By my list, just the 7

Same, I was sure it was on loads during the summer. It drove me nuts actually, I cant listen to it anymore.

No, they just happened to have a tune with the same name. It's on the Music Complete album, which is excellent!

Yes John, a ‘listener’ requested ‘May You Never’ by John Martyn.

🤔

I don't think I can upload files unfortunately. Correct me if wrong. Here's a snippet (top 200)….This one here goes back to when creedo began (2011). Bear in mind they don't publish every playlist (don't know why), so it's not exact
