Blackpool is trying to make it self more upmarket
Although the event could be a Heart event featuring more artists like Lawson signed to Global!
Strangely some of the artists like Faith, Noisettes and Overtones sound retro enough to feel in place on Gold, but will not be played as they are current!
Still a possibility Global may still keep Smooth as a easy listening soul flavoured station going to keep the record companies happy so they can plug retro artists such as these on commercial radio rather than just the BBC!
