Future shows include producer Norman Bergen,

Interesting, was in touch with him a couple of weeks ago. He did some fabulous productions over the years.

Any chance this will.be available on podcast ?

Working on it!

It's a commercial radio station that relies on advertising for its very existence,the days of specialist programmes going to air are long gone,expect classic tracks with ads aimed at fifty year olds and over.For truly forward thinking formats the arena for that is podcasts.

Well ... did anyone listen?

If so ... what was it like please?

And ... is it available on podcast?

Thanks

Richard

I Sky Plussed it and have listened to the first couple of hours so far. I will listen to the rest. I enjoyed it, the Wheel section was what you would have expected it to be. My Mrs commented that she knew every tune and liked them. Sam & Dave - Soothe Me and Bar Kays - Soulfinger kind of stuff section was good.

If you were looking for something to complain about you would probably have found something. If you were taking it for what it was intended to be; you would have enjoyed it.

Cheers

Cheers John

Anyone know if there is another way to listen to it apart from SkyPlus (I don't have that)?

Cheers
