"Savages Greatest Hits of All Time 2008" being Adrian Horwitz's remake of Kevin Savage's show from 4th May 2008. Kevin features in virtually every link and where he does not introduce the song, Adrian has added an Ad or Voiceover done by him. The playlist is faithful to his but for 2 items- Adrian used Chrissie Hind's version of "I got you babe" and not Sony and Cher because he had a clip of Kevin introducing the song and for the same reason substituted Fleetwood Mac's Don't Stop for Go your own way.
