2008 marks the 20th anniversary of Solid Steel's first appearance on the airwaves and this audio DVD contains a few highlights from the archive.

Matt Black and Jonathan More started out on London's pirate KISS FM radio station with separate shows but then joined forces to present Solid Steel in 1988, a few years before the station finally went legal.

In the early 90's they were joined on a regular basis by PC, shortly followed by Strictly Kev, for the two hour mix marathons.

DK jumped on board in 1997, quickly rising to become producer and in 2000 the show enjoyed a spell on BBC London. In 2004 J Mountain joined the ranks and the show continued airing a diverse selection of guest mixes along with the occasional special interview.

Solid Steel has spread it's wings, going on to broadcast in over 30 stations around the world, spawned a mix CD series and club nights.In today's ready-to-go world of mp3 players, internet streaming and podcasts it's easy to forget that the show wasn't always easy to come by and, for the first ten years, was only broadcast in and around London.

Fans of the show taped it on cassette and some of these found their way onto the web in the last decade, the equivalent of musical gold dust. Those days are now largely over but the Solid Steel podcast has already reached over a million downloads.We have dug deep and here we bring you a selection of shows, from the earliest find on cassette, (from '88 along with 'authentic' tape hiss), to DATs, videos and CDRs throughout the 90's and the odd mp3 right up to 2008. You'll hear straight studio mixes, interviews and a few full shows with jingles, ad breaks and the occasional bit of studio banter.

This is just a taste of what Solid Steel has been bringing you over the last 2 decades and we'd like to thank all our listeners and guests for your support and look forward to beaming the show straight into your heads in another 20 years times

Disc content: over 40 hours of mp3s + a pdf booklet full of info about each show featured.

It just says Burrito's. With an apostrophe. It's owned by someone, or something named Burrito.

Update: Apparently the ownership of the original Burrito Boyz has split. Inside it looks exactly the same, and they say that the ingredients, preparation and everything else will stay exactly the same.

Maybe the owners are a little frightened about he competition from Smoke's Poutinerie
