Whispers from The Deep South
Bob in Nashville, August 2022
This month Bob has taken full advantage of a wonderful opportunity to travel to Texas to host Buddy Holly's 85th Birthday Celebration in Lubbock, TX. His Stateside visit, lasting much of August, took in visits to Tennessee & Alabama and a chance to catch up with many old friends, colleagues, fellow broadcasters - as well as making many new friends along the way.
By way of a diary here are some highlights from his trip as featured on Bob’s Twitter & Intagram pages. Enjoy!
We had a fun time this morning on #CoffeeCountryCody with the legendary BBC2 radio presenter @WhisperingBob!

“I’m in Lubbock Texas. I’m here to host a very special tribute concert for @tbhef. The sun is out, the sky is blue, there’s not a cloud to spoil the view. And it’s not raining in my heart either”
Incredible to soak in the atmosphere of @Fame_Music in Muscle Shoals, the home of some of the greatest records ever made pic.twitter.com/OXV039vjQp
