  • Classic Radio 1 Schedules (1967-2004)
    Frequency Finder UK (www.frequencyfinder.org.uk) Classic Radio 1 Schedules (1967-2004) October 1967 In the early years, Radio 1 was very different. It was originally conceived as a general popular music network, broadcasting easy listening, jazz, folk and country as well as pop and rock music. The intention was that it would opt out of the Light Programme with music when the Light was carrying a speech programme. This was largely the pattern in the first few years, with a lot of sharing between Radios 1 and 2, though the two stations did carry separate music programmes at breakfast and late afternoon. The daytime schedules didn't fully separate until the 1970s. Another feature of the early schedule is that many programmes featured different presenters on different days or in different weeks. A lot of the presenters floated between several shows. Saturday Monday to Friday 05:30 As Radio 2 05:30 As Radio 2 07:00 Tony Blackburn 07:00 Tony Blackburn 08:30 Junior Choice with Leslie Crowther (also on R2) 08:30 Family Choice with a guest presenter (also on R2) 10:00 Saturday Club with Keith Skues 10:00 Jimmy Young (also on R2 until 11:00) 12:00 Emperor Rosko 12:00 Midday Spin with Simon Dee (Mon), Duncan 13:00 Jack Jackson (also on R2) Johnson (Tue), Kenny Everett (Wed), David Rider 14:00 Chris Denning (also on R2) (Thur) and Stuart Henry (Fri) (also on R2) 15:00 Pete Murray (also on R2) 13:00 (Mon) Dave Cash - Live Music 16:00 Pete Brady (also on R2) 13:00 (Tue) Keith Fordyce - Live Music 17:30 Country Meets Folk with Wally Whyton (also on 13:00 (Wed) Bob Miller and The Millermen with R2) Parade of the Pops - Live orchestral pop 18:30 Scene and Heard - magazine with Johnny Moran 13:00 (Thur) Pop North with the Northern Dance 19:30 As Radio 2 Orchestra 22:00 Pete Murray (easy listening, also on R2) 13:00 (Fri) The Joe Loss Show - Live orchestral pop 00:00-02:00 Night Ride with Sean Kelly (easy listening, 14:00 Pete Brady (also on R2 15:00-16:15) also on R2) 16:30 What's New 17:30 David Symonds Sunday 19:30 As Radio 2 except..

  • Snakehips 'All My Friends' (99 Souls Remix) Press Release Final
    99 Souls Remix Snakehips Collaboration With Tinashe & Chance The Rapper - ‘All My Friends' (RCA RECORDS) Out Now Stream 99 Souls remix: http://bit.ly/1MNd14V 99 Souls Spotify link: http://smarturl.it/AMF99SoulsRemix Listen to ‘All My Friends': http://smarturl.it/allmyfriendsStrm Download ‘All My Friends': http://smarturl.it/allmyfriendsDL ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Following the success of their ‘Forever (Part II)’ EP earlier this year, Snakehips are back alongside two of R&B and Hip-Hop’s most creative new-school artists in Tinashe and Chance The Rapper to present their new single, ‘All My Friends'. An instant success, the collaboration went straight to #1 in the HypeMachine chart, has had over 5 million plays and reached #65 in the UK Shazam Chart - and this is only the beginning. ‘All My Friends’ evokes the spirit of future-facing Hip-Hop and R&B, with both the sultry vocals of Tinashe and witty, quick-fire wordplay of Chance The Rapper lacing Snakehips’ punchy, dreamscape-like beat with both power and purpose. The hook - both emotional and vividly infectious - grounds the record too, giving it a thoughtful, binding quality sure to lend itself well to international audiences. This summer has seen the pair embark on an extensive sold out tour of the US and Canada, playing a mammoth 16 shows throughout May/June and even supporting Major Lazer on their European tour, but not before they played a series of UK dates in March following the release of the ‘Forever (Part II)’ EP. Their exploits so far this year have also seen them nominated for a MOBO Award in the ‘Best Newcomer’ category alongside the likes of George The Poet, Sinead Harnett and Nao.

This provides an opportunity to consider the complementary roles of these services, as well as the combined impact of the entire BBC music radio portfolio and its offer to listeners 1.2 Our overall assessment is that the BBC makes a valuable contribution to music radio, but it needs to be held to account more firmly against its public service remit. Peak hours in particular are largely devoted to popular music programmes and are not providing sufficiently distinctive content for listeners. Public service content is scheduled mostly in off peak hours. 1.3 Independent consultants BDRC Continental were commissioned to assess listener perspectives on the output of Radio 1, Radio 2 and Radio 3.
