ooo gary davis on your radio

[magneticfly]

child of the very early eighties here -

used to listen to the radio one breakfast show in the mornings untill i almost missed the school bus.

mike read was a favourite, always playing obsure records - who remembers

boys go dancing
or
i want to be a cowbuy
or
chain of disaster?

they had some very silly jingles back then

i remember hiding a transistor radio in the desk then trying to write down the chart positions of a tuesday lunchtime while looking out for teachers.

"Spandau Ballet are still number one!!!!!!!"

whole class breaks out into a chorus of True, followed by "do you think the teachers heard us?"

I remember just after lunch one Tuesday at school, someone came in and told me Kraftwerk were at Number One. I didn't believe them. But it's all true.
