delboy Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 the 20 quid i spent on e bay on 250 or so of his shows (spread across 8 DVD's!) was probably the best 20 quid i ever spent! and i shall be listening to the great man all the way too and back from scotland at new year! that site is good because there is many earlier shows, on my collection the oldest is 1990 but theyre mainly from his last couple of years. there's also some other good radio archive stuff on that site which gets a radio fanatic like me all excited!

Alan Cynic Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 I've got most of one show from c.82 on reel-to-reel somewhere, and cassettes of some daytime shows he did in the 90s (in which he played some chart stuff to keep the listeners happy). I've also got one from the 90s where he plays a song from my first album. I was severely chuffed (although I missed hearing it 'live').I'd like to hear some of the early 70s shows again.

delboy Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 i remember when he did daytime for a week, it was fantastic. correct me if I'm wrong but I'm sure the first song he played was the fall 'why are people grudgeful' and made a comment on the lines of 'here's a song for all the family'. bloody legend!

Alan Cynic Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 I can't remember tbh.....but those tapes are lying about somewhere. I remember him playing Kylie, which was weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
