Soul Solutions with Mica Paris, BBC Radio 2

The show, with seven series under its belt, combines the best in soul music - both classic and contemporary. Highlights from the series include live acoustic sessions from some of the best nu soul artists including Bilal, Floetry, Jaguar Wright and Omar.

We were also honoured to be joined on the first show by the King himself, Solomon Burke and we also spoke to Teddy Pendergrass - his first UK radio interview in over a decade!

The hardest thing about this series was the losses the music suffered - so many greats passed and on several occasions we had to completely re-record programmes at the last minute to include tributes to legends such as Wilson Pickett, Lou Rawls and Gene McFadden. Mica is an absolute joy to work with - we have a lot of fun making the show and also do a fair bit of dancing and bitching!

There has been seven series of Soul Solutions, and the latest ran from December 2005 to Feb 06
