not on your telly...

Postby drakula63 » Mon Aug 15, 2011 12:07 pm

Aparently I am due to make another 'appearance' on the show within the next two weeks (always had a good face for radio, me!). Not sure quite when, but I shall keep you updated. I can promise at least one Shadows or Shadows-related track!!

Watch this space! Stay tuned, etc... and other cliches!

Meanwhile, here's the 'Not on your Telly' page...

...To all 63 if you who have viewed this message...

Apparently I am co-hosting the show THIS Sunday! We'll be on from 7 to 9 PM, with a (hopefully) entertaining mix of chat and old telly themes. I have just emailed half a dozen tracks into the radio station, so I anticipate at least one or two Shadows numbers or numbers closely related to the Shadows by virtue of one or two notable composers from within the group!

I hope at least some of you will tune in (or log on!!) and then email the station to tell them how brilliant/rubbish I was (delete as necessary!).

I shall do me best. In the meantime, it would do no harm to email in a couple of requests...

See ya!

Fans of Gerry Anderson, or more specifically, Barry Gray, will be pleased to hear that Sunday's show will be a Barry Gray Special - so if you want to hear the themes to UFO, Space:1999, Stingray, Thunderbirds, etc..., then log on! Naturally this also means that at least one Shadows track has to be played - and I'll leave you to guess which one!

There'll also be a few 'non-Barry' surprises, and I can promise that fans of Brian Bennett's epic tom-tom sound will not be disappointed! Plus, of course, some idle chit-chat from me and, hopefully, some news and trivia.

F.A.B.

It went very well. No major cock-ups. I played Confunktion by Dave Richmond, Chaseside Shootup by Brian Bennett and the Thunderbirds theme by the Shads. Thanks to anyone who listened. I shall let you know if I'm on again...

Chris.

P.S. Also managed to inadvertantly play the spoken intro to 'Scotch on the Socks' - as heard on the At Abbey Road CD! A bit of a cock-up I suppose, but it sounded good!!!
