Why don't they play old stuff like this on the radio?

Looks like you can still stream it, why not record and use as a USB/CD/MP4 player?

Radio 2 is the new radio 1, they just need to bring back 'our tune' and 'The vague news' and it'll be complete

"our tune" with Simon Bates is on Smooth radio every mon-fri 8:40am

Looks like you can still stream it --

Yes, it's still available on-line. I'm just waiting for standalone internet radios to come down to a realistic price (because I know perfectly well that chips are cheap) and I'll have one for the bathroom.

-- "our tune" with Simon Bates --

Don't remind me! I used to work in a small factory where Radio One played all day in the production area and some of us decamped to a different room to get away from the abominable "our tune".

Don't get me wrong here; I had no objection to the general concept. It was the way SB went on and on - and on - and on. On one occasion he went on for a solid half hour. He went on so long that the actual tune that somebody, somewhere, was hoping to hear got cut short by the news.

What a plonker!

Absolute 90's has the best tunes

Steve Wrong isn't funny in any way.

Planet Rock is OK as long as you like 80's cheese rock and a smattering of decent stuff mixed in.

You're wright, me personally think Ken Bruce is numero uno, but what ever happened to Wild Al Kelly?

Ken Bruce???

Is this a "Jocks & Gordie" thing? similar to the love between the Bristolians & the Welsh.

Planet Rock for me.

Best DJ ever was Krusher who ran Krushers Metal Mayhem on Greater London Radio on a Sunday back in the late 80s & early 90s.
IIRC he was a journalist for Kerrang! magazine and got fired from GLR for turning up drunk too many times or something.

PS - Freebird for best guitar solo ever?
As a devotee of Messers Hendrix, Page, Blackmore, Clapton and Green I would have to respectfully disagree

Nah, he's just a waste of bandwidth. A wittering old ****.
