Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food - African Steel/Dark Star Sci-Fi Sex Up
This time round we’re back in the mid to late 90’s with PC and Strictly, aka DJ Food as they take an hour each with very different paths.

DJ Food (PC & Strictly Kev): Solid Steel 97-99
DK’s choice this time round and he sums up these selections thus: “These are probably my favourite Solid Steel mixes, early days in the show for me and some great ‘moments’ in them….” He obviously liked them because as well as appearing on the 19/10/97, 06/06/99 and [...]

Vintage Solid Steel: Last Stand At The BBC
Cue the atmospheric wild west music in the background as Solid Steel makes it’s last stand!
