- 2nd August, 1967
UPDATE: The bus ride home was both bumpy and precarious, but I still got the track list done.

This one is so hot off the music file equivalent of the press that it doesn’t even have a track list yet. Of course, I’ll cobble it together when I listen to the show on the bus on the way home tonight (done!), but if you get round to it before I have a chance, please also make a note of the songs here.
Thank you in advance if you do, if not just enjoy this little chunk of the ’60s at their most swinging.
The sound quality is what I like to call wonderfully crap. If you’re a child of the pre-FM era, this will be a particular treat and will no doubt bring back memories of how much better radio was when the signal wasn’t crystal clear.
A monstrous shout out to the wonderful Azanorak website for making this one available to the masses.

I have a long train journey back to London from Manchester on Wednesday and this is going to accompany the G&T and slipping-past fields nicely. Ta x
PS: I think the last song is this.

PPS: Radio Luxembourg used to sound as bad as that as ‘late’ as 1980.

I was a mid-eighties ‘laser 558′ man myself, although you won’t catch me admitting it too often.
