Great story behind my favourite Mother's Day Jam of all time. My first ever pirate radio show took place a couple of years before even Radio Friendly existed up in Thompson's House for DrossFM. Myself and Mr.Fork did a Mothers Day show one Sunday and he introduced me to this Philly classic, which was later sampled by Raphael Saadiq and Q Tip for "Get Involved". It was an epic radio show and one of the best buzzes I've ever had, despite the fact that more people will read this in the next few minutes than heard the show! This is for Mr Fork and all the mama's out there!

- I'm a DJ from Cork in Ireland. I work with RedFM, presenting Red Drive, The Hitlist and my specialist show, Black on Red. I'm probably best known for being one of the main hip-hop/soul DJ's in Cork and Ireland. I've been DJing in Cork since the early 90's in legendary clubnights such as Sweat in Sir Henrys, Mor Disco, Free La Funk, Yo Latino and also Jam and Jam Junior at the Savoy and the Pavilion. I've also held down long term residencies at clubs around Ireland such as Brown Sugar at the Kitchen in Dublin, U-Turn at Ri Ra in Dublin, Jazz Juice at the GPO in Galway, Thompson Garage in Belfast, the Soul Clinic, Dee-Bop, Meltdown and Mo Bounce in Limerick and i've played abroad in the United States and the U.K. on numerous occasions. I also write a music column for the Evening Echo and i'm a regular contributor to the U.K.'s Blues and Soul, the longest running black music magazine in the world. These days i run the Pavilion, a music venue in Cork, which hosts my Jam night every few Fridays http://www.pavilioncork.com also you can catch me at http://djstevieg.podomatic.com
