Did They Really Just Play That?

Yes GHD is becoming a bit disappointing yet at the same time Classic Rock seems to be getting even better.

This changed as of 15:45 today… finally found and fixed the issue where the previous tech had mono-ed it out leaving the studio… So now it is Stereo out to Stanthorpe and also stereo right to the input of the audio Processor at 1242 AM Site pending the reinstall of a AM Stereo Exciter and the Orban 9100A

Listen to the wind by John Farnham on SWR awesome 80s

On the subject of John Farnham, 2DAY FM has played “Pressure Down” a few times.

Even though they are playing more 80s songs now, he seems like a bit of an odd choice for them.

I remember 2day fm played the whole whispering jack album back when it was released.

Yes remember the concerts on tv in fm stereo, and those movies like raiders of the lost art in fm stereo. :blush:

I know Christmas is just around the corner (in case you hadn’t noticed :slight_smile: ), but I didn’t expect to hear this on WSFM Sydney just now

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town - Frank Sinatra and Cyndi Lauper

I enjoyed hearing the song though

Looking at Online Radio Box, 4KQ are doing another “Sizzling 70s” weekend, with a bit of a festive twist to it.

One particular Xmas song from the 70s that they played at around 1:37pm local time this afternoon was “Jingle Bell Rock” by 4IP Good Guys. Interesting that a station played a song done by a group of people from a one-time rival station.

I mean, if WS in Sydney did an ‘all 80s’ weekend with a festive twist, would you see them play “We Wish You a MMMerry Christmas” by Doug Mulray, in which whilst he was involved with the station in the late 90s, was with a rival station at the time the song was released? I guess you wouldn’t hear WS play “You Are Soul” by Doug Mulray during an ‘all 80s’ weekend, because, well…you’ll figure out why. :wink:

Yes - sizzling seventies again. During the week 4KQ played another from the “10-10 bin” but this was before the Good Guys. They mentioned Geoff Mullins (PD), Paul J Turner, Ray Mcgregor, Lee Cornell, Kevin Hillier, Alan McGirvan, Graham Roberts and John Knox.

Could this possibly be the same Geoff Mullins who later went on to present Ten News in Brisbane until 2003?

Yes - there were fairly close ties between 4IP and TVQ - TVQ set up their first news room in the Brisbane CBD at 4IP - The City News Centre for the channel O News Watch.

This is what happens using the same music scheduling, building their clocks with same rules.
