Indeed. But after I discovered Top Gear (John Peel), Bob Harris and Pete Drummond, all radio bets were off.
I listned to the Sunday evening chart show on R1 till about 1972. It was followed by 'sing somthing simple' with Brian Mathews, who ought to have known better - see Bowie at the beeb -...
I listened to a bit of R2 and decided it was MOR pap for braindead morons, and put it on 'ignore'. That was back in 1971. Have I done myself out of a lifetime of pleasure? Thinking about it.....I don't give a tiny shit.
