Three from Harry Torrani: Sitting in a jailhouse, The Prairie Yodel and Mockingbird Yodel. All self penned. His voice is incredible of the last track and he accompanies himself on the English concertina. Both sides of a Hoosier Hot Shots: Sentimental gentleman from Georgia and Meet me by the icehouse Lizzie. Unusually its on the English Rex label. They are billed as America's Hill Billy Aces. Another English exponent of cowboy music was Johnny Denis. Popular in the 1940s and 50s, he gives us My, my ain't that something. He even whistles. Hardly forgotten but Hank Williams gives us Howling at the moon. Hank Snow: Down the trail of aching hearts. What a great C&W title. Lonnie Donegan is back with Dead or alive. Les Allen was, I think, Canadian born and sang for Geraldo in the 1930s. He sings Empty saddles. I love Peter Lind Hayes version of the Carson Robinson song Life gits teejus don't it. If you've been in a 'lockdown' situation the lyrics will certainly ring true!

In this episode, Paul interviews Martin Allen, Professional football player, coach and manager. They discuss the importance of hard work and determination in achieving your goals and the many challenges that can stand in your way This interview is a fascinating insight into the life of a professional footballer - both during and after their playing career KEY TAKEAWAYS Were you aware of the expectations growing up? When I was in the youth team at QPR, I found myself with a brilliant but intimidating coach. He quickly made it clear that I didn’t fit into his plans. This was the first time I experienced rejection and happened at the same time others in my family were doing brilliantly in their football careers I came originally from Dagenham and was very aware of those from this area who did very well. My father who was a player, manager, coach and set up a program of boxing, athletics and labouring to increase my strength between football seasons My body and my mentality changed. When I returned to pre-match training, there was a race for all members of the club, and I beat everyone, They could not believe their eyes! That was the day I realised I could move from the youth team to the seniors. It changed my life, I had the self-belief that I could do it What’s your life vision now? When professional footballers finish their careers there is a great void. A chasm about how you are going to fulfill anything else in your life. I was invited to take up the role as assistant coach and then took up several other opportunities leading to the post of manager at Gillingham FC, where we were very successful. I was able to repeat this with Barnet FC and so have achieved the things I wanted to do, professionally. The charity work I am involved in has given me a wider awareness of what is important in life. I’ve run coaching programs and admire people who have a smile even though they may not have very much. Where did ‘Mad Dog’ come from? Not many footballers have a nickname that is so recognizable! At the time my tackling wasn’t great, and I was very passionate which sometimes resulted in me having froth on my mouth; one of my team started calling me ‘Mad Dog’ and this was picked up by the fans I also went on to have the nickname ‘Uncle’ with the players at Gillingham and I’m very proud of this as it’s a huge compliment. When they were asked why, it’s because they felt looked after by me as their coach. BEST MOMENTS ‘Lots of hard work not just through natural skills’ ‘It was character-building’ ‘You’re like our favourite uncle looking after us and making sure we’re okay’ ‘It’s about finding inner-peace’ ‘I tried my best it didn’t work - that’s life!’ ‘My dad was my coach and my mentor’ ‘The determination, focus and self-belief along with the drive from my dad’ ‘Application of hard work got me over the line’ VALUABLE RESOURCES https://www.amazon.co.uk/Speaking-our-Hearts-Mastering-game/dp/1781332819 https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/mastering-life/id1421271122?mt=2 ABOUT THE HOST Something that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – for which he is immensely proud.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned – in the Steve Jobs quote: “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” Paul Lowe is the founder of PaulLoweHEARTS – which has a three-fold purpose.  Firstly, to help you make the transition from pain to purpose; secondly, to get your inspirational messages and stories out into the world and thirdly, to support charitable organisations in their development & fund-raising.
