So in my time back at home over Christmas I discovered a stack of old cassette tapes my parents and I had recorded years ago. While a lot of them were filled with crap, there were some gems that I allowed to run uninterrupted, meaning some old radio IDs were recorded. I’ve now had a chance to record and upload a few of them:
101.1 TT-FM ‘Time Warp Weekend’, most likely from the late 90s (exact date unsure)
FM 95.5 K-Rock ‘Awesome 80s Music Marathon’, again late 90s I believe but can’t confirm the date
The K-Rock one is certainly a bit older, as they still called themselves ‘FM 95 point 5’, they dropped the point in the early 2000s. But how awesome is it to have an announcer on a Saturday night, complete with a full gig guide for the pubs and clubs, as well as six hours ad-free music! Radio isn’t quite the same any more
There’s a few more I still have to upload, sadly there could be so much more if a younger me had appreciated the value in letting the tape run, rather than cutting all the IDs off
Anyway, hope there’s some enjoyment for some of you in these clips
