Artists visits to the offshore radio stations The idea for this list came from Martin van der Ven after listening to one of the last shows from Keith Skues in September 2020 when Keith mentioned some of the names of artists who visited the Mi Amigo from Caroline South in the sixties. With this new list we mention not only those who visited a radio ship, but also the studios on land or even presented a program. Mentioning for being on a roadshow or other venue, organized by an Offshore station, are also in this list. If so the item will be mentioned ‘outside’. Up to the readers to make this list a complete as possible. Please name the artist, the station’s name as well as it was on land or at sea.

    An Amber Attractions Production the Golden Days of Australian Bandstand a Musical Look at 60'S Culture

    An Amber Attractions Production The Golden days of Australian Bandstand A musical look at 60's Culture Australia’s longest running TV pop show ran for 15 years on channel nine and was beamed into, two million Australian loungeroom’s each week. Hosted by the mild mannered Brian Henderson, it featured regular Australian singers who became known as the "Bandstand Family". The show popularised the talents of Col Joye, Little Patti, Bryan Davies, Judy Stone, The Seekers, Johnny Farnham and The Bee Gees to name a few. As the program grew in popularity the audience was introduced to many overseas stars such as Dusty Springfield, Petula Clark, Tom Jones, Hermans Hermits, Chubby Checker plus many more. While other pop shows presented screaming fans and long-haired beat groups, Bandstand somehow seemed to ignore the extreme trends in music that happened in the mid and late 1960s. Although it showcased a range of pop performers, it shied away from the brash and the scruffy, becoming a more family orientated programme than a show strictly for teenagers. Each episode featured the "Bandstand Ballet" who kept the audience up to date with the latest dance trends. The Audience will RE-LIVE those swinging days of BANDSTAND. Be transported back to their loungeroom's with memorable Film clips BOP along with the DANCERS on screen and sing their heart's out to those unforgettable songs. Produced and Presented by Australia's favourite entertainers, Eddie Daniels and Suzie Lee. BANDSTAND Playlist examples Happy Together - The Turtles Boom bang a Bang - Lulu Do

    Hans Knot International Radio Report July/August 2017 Welcome to another issue of the International Radio Report and like every summer it will be one for the month of July and August. Thanks for the many response on last issue as well as memories and photos have been sent in for this and further issues. Enjoy the report! Sadly we have to start with bad news. May the 30th the following sad news came in from Mark Sloane (Pat Hammerton) ‘Sorry to report Hans my dear chum David Gilbee, Dave Mackay, died this weekend. He and I met on Radio 390 and worked together on 355. He was also my brother in law, marrying my sister Lis.’ Dave MacKay Radio 355 Photo: collection Pirate Hall of Fame I’m very sorry to hear this sad news Pat. Of course you know him far much better than I do. I met him on a handful of occasions and was in contact with him by e-mail through the years. Of course he was on special Radio Reunions a few times in England where we met during the last 20 years. But our very first meeting was one, were we sometimes talked about. It was a very special day just after the official opening of Melody Radio in London. I was there for a special for our magazine and he told me all about the station, the style of presentation but above all how much of the music was transferred to a machine which was just put into the market. It was Dave who brought me to the idea to do the same with my vinyl collection.

    Hans Knot International Radio Report December 2015 Welcome to This

    Hans Knot International Radio Report December 2015 Welcome to this edition of the radio report and thanks for all the e mails with memories and more, which is most appreciated. Also this time there is a variety of subjects and so let’s start with the first one: Recently I was linked through to a message board where several people are exchanging memories and more. One of them was Terry Davis, which we know from offshore stations like Radio Atlantis and RNI. I added a memory by saying that Terry should also be remembered for his excellent ‘Beatles songs’ which were aired a lot on Radio Atlantis. Later he also worked together with Steve England in the jingle companies Tapetrix and Alfa Sounds. Well Terry sent some nice pictures from his Atlantis days in 1974. The first one is a photo from the bridge of the radioship, which was anchored in international waters off the Belgium coast in those days. The second one shows Steve England, Debbie and John Harding and a fourth person at the background which cannot be remembered by me. And finally here is a photo of the deck-hands Dean and Raffle, who were mentioned in the programs from the international service on Radio Atlantis. A regular in the report and friend since we met for the very first time in 1970 is Paul de Haan. On Saturdays I’m galley man - as I don’t want to name myself cook – on board the minesweeper ‘de Naarden’ in Delfzijl. Working there is also a machinist who was working with Dutch Marine in the seventies of last century.
  • The Popular Music Heritage of the Dutch Pirates: Illegal Radio and Cultural Identity

    The Popular Music Heritage of the Dutch Pirates: Illegal Radio and Cultural Identity

    To cite: Hoeven, A. van der. (2012). The popular music heritage of the Dutch pirates: illegal radio and cultural identity. Media, Culture & Society, 34(8), 927–943. The popular music heritage of the Dutch pirates: illegal radio and cultural identity Arno van der Hoeven Abstract This article explores how cultural identities are negotiated in relation to the heritage of illegal radio in the Netherlands. The term ‘pirate radio’ commonly refers to the offshore radio stations that were broadcasting during the 1960s. These stations introduced commercial radio and popular music genres like beat music, which were not played by public broadcasters at the time. In their wake, land-based pirates began broadcasting for local audiences. This study examines the identities that are constituted by the narrative of pirate radio. Drawing on in-depth interviews with archivists, fans and broadcasters, this article explores the connection between pirate radio, popular music heritage and cultural identity. Moreover, it considers how new technologies such as internet radio provide platforms to engage with this heritage and thus to maintain these local identities. To examine how the memories of pirate radio live on in the present a narrative approach to identity will be used.

  • The Dutch Radio Day

    The Dutch Radio Day

    The Dutch Radio Day It was in 1978 that Mike Baron and Nick Oakly from Music Radio Promotions asked as few people from the Netherlands, including Hans Knot, to cooperate in a special event called Zeezenders 20, which was held at Noordwijkerhout. Inspired by the Zeezenders 20 happening Rob Olthof from Amsterdam suggested that he, along with Hans, could organise small meetings for offshore radio fans. He made a beginning with the so- called ‘Movie Afternoons’. It was the time when private videos arose and so those 8mm movies, made by offshore radio anoraks, were screened and some discussions were launched. In 1980, Hans Verbaan of the Free Radio Campaign joined in and a group of interested people got together in a small building in Scheveningen harbour on quite a regular basis. These movie afternoons sometimes took place twice a year and it came to a point that there were more people than available chairs. Therefore some bigger locations in cities like Amsterdam, Haarlem, Utrecht and again Amsterdam had to be found. In 1984, the first guests were interviewed including Simon Barrett, Juul Geleick and Tom Mulder. In the meantime, the organising team was growing with Piet Treffers and Tom de Munck joining in. From the late eighties, more people from abroad - most of all Germany and Belgium - attended the event each year. During the nineties, more and more deejays and technicians from former offshore radio stations visited the Radio Days to be interviewed. Our team had been joined by Jelle Boonstra, who did a marvellous job within the Radio Day organisation during a period of 15 years.
