The 45 Live Radio Show: CLUB COLLECTORS
05.16.25
Greg Belson, a highly respected, LA-based DJ on the rare soul/funk scene, hosts the monthly dublab show 45 Live. It’s about the love of music, the love of vinyl and having an excellent old time of it. Whatever you do, keep it 45.
45 Live is a collective of DJs from across Europe and the USA who have come together to indulge in and celebrate their love of the mighty 45rpm 7″ single. Hailing from all corners of popular and niche music scenes, the love of the 45 is what drew them all together. Created by UK based DJs Boca 45 and Pete Isaac, 45 Live is fast growing into a record label, festival circuit and events brand, and regular club night session.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We’re excited to announce the next in a series of sessions that have broadcast over the last 6 months in 2025. Each show has focused on the sounds & plays all sourced on original vinyl, that are currently coming out of underground clubland across the UK.
Introducing: CLUB COLLECTORS
Clubs that focus on unearthing records that have been previously ignored, undiscovered or simply just underplayed, these selectors are paving the way for tunes that might just become the next big sound. Folks who forage deep for the black gold from soul, funk, gospel, garage, & r&b to soulful house, hiphop, beats & African rhythms. Hosted by Greg Belson, CLUB COLLECTORS will set the tone & shine a light on DJ’s that put in the legwork to find the next undiscovered discovery.
Joining us for the 5th session: THE FUNKY CASTLE; Iain “Hutch” McCabe & Alan “Bookie” McEwen
This is 45 Live!
