Tonight…on this Bastille Day 14th July 2020… on “Radio Treasures” broadcast on Cork Music Station 9:30 to 11:00pm we feature our regular items with a splendid blend of uplifting songs and music as well as a variety of interesting musings. Among the Treasures to feature tonight:
- Reviewing the new Historic Collection presented by Eileen Cronin whose interview a fortnight ago proved hugely popular with among the many Listeners a lady from a very famous family.
