Radio 2 or Radio 4
that's the only stations I ever tune in my car, Radio 1 is for cunts and local radio is shit...

Plus they played some Floyd this morning.

I do sometimes tune into radio 3 if its a composer I like

'Radio 2 or Radio 4'
Agreed. I sometimes throw in a cheeky Radio 4 extra for the comedy shows.

I half listened to that Viv Stanshall doc you mentioned yesterday.

It was fucking brilliant
I just had it on in the background but every so often it would break through, and I would listen for a few minutes.

That's exactly how I listened.
Love the Sir Henry stuff

There was some fairly decent stuff on R2 in the evenings a few years ago, but then they seemed to have a bit of a reshuffle to push the likes of me over to 6Music.
Got a bit of a soft spot for Desmond Carrington and Jamie Cullum's jazz programme is alright.
But I wouldn't have anything other than Today or R3 in the mornings.

I thought it was a bit odd that they put Mark Radcliffe on the R2 Folk show
Seems to work though. I quite like Bob Harris's Country show too.

I think they were gearing him up for that for a while
He always reported from the Folk Awards and I suspect Mike Harding was a bit of a pain in the arse.

Just surfed around the web looking for info on Mike Harding
1: Yes, he is/was ginger - I was unaware of this previously, Explains a lot.
2: He's started a podcast/website where he does a show of 'The best in folk, roots and acoustic music' - sound familiar?

I have a recollection of finding his songs funny as a kid
but I couldn't tell you a single one... That said I used to find Jasper Carrot funny as a kid so my judgement may not be reliable

Things were different back then

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Wed 26 Mar 2014, 10:14, Reply)

So dont tell anyone
and don't put it on the internet, but I have just been remembering Jaspers "Insurance Claims" skit... It is still funny.


But Shhhhhhhh Right
