Wow, what a site, great to hear this all again. Really radio 3 should be re broadcasting this, maybe the might attract some listeners! Well done, long forwards to the big band sound.
Many thanks, Christopher. I’m thinking of letting the BBC Genome site know about these recordings – hopefully the Beeb doesn’t respond with a take-down notice!
Steve this really is the A Plus Ultra of websites that I will visit. You have set yourself a very high standard. Lashings of memories of Alan Dell.
One tiny niggle. Alan sounds rather high pitched and light on the 26 July 1976 session. Is it playing a tad fast?
Richard: Thanks for the kind comments! Lashings indeed… and lots more to come when I can find some time. It does sound like Alan’s been at the helium on this show. I’ll have to go back to my original transfer – I THINK it’s one of mine. Watch this space 🙂
I’ve found the original file and slowed it down by 2% – Alan now sounds much better!
He does indeed seem more mellow and less hyper – charged.
Thank You Steve
