– Countdown to Festive Season #7: 1986 at Fades in Slowly

Why the bloody hell didn’t I do this in order? I’m only seven 50s into the marathon and I’ve already lost count and have to go back and check what I’ve already done. On to 1986 then. This was the year that Spain and Portugal were admitted into the European Community, there was the first induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Chuck Berry, James Brown, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis Presley) and Space Shuttle Challenger exploded just after takeoff killing all seven astronauts onboard. Even worse, Sandra Kim won the thirty-first Eurovision Song Contest for Belgium singing “J’aime la vie” (I love life).

In an interview with Playboy magazine, science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke came out as a bisexual and US President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev met in Reykjavík, Iceland, in an effort to continue discussions about scaling back their intermediate missile arsenals in Europe. In Ukraine, a nuclear reactor at the Chornobyl (Chernobyl) nuclear plant exploded, creating the world’s worst nuclear disaster. I should warn you, this clip doesn’t make for comfortable viewing…

Aftermath of Chernobyl

This year’s Festive 50 was broadcast between 22nd and 31st December and is one of the greats, especially if you happen to be a Smiths fan. #47 has long been a personal favourite of mine…

If you’re one of the tens of people who might actually be interested in listening to the shows, you can do so here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here. Notice how I carefully avoided mentioning any hand of God type incidents?

Brilliant ! I only taped a C90′s worth of this at the time, so it’s great to finally get the whole thing. I love that you’re using such good bit-rates too, for us audiophiles to enjoy. Keep up the good work !
