Radio Ga Ga

No Mark Radcliffe last night; a review of the Bafta awards (which were held last Saturday), hosted by Matthew Wright (Channel 5 monkey) and a coterie of idiots.

What the hell is happening to radio? Commercial radio is, and always has been, terrible. BBC Radio is now following the same route. I used to listen to a bit of Resonance FM (very occasionally), but I'm the periphery of London and reception is often terrible.

Mixing It cancelled to be replaced by DWEM composers and 'building a jazz library',
BBC London breakfast - once hosted by Danny Baker - a shambles,
Danny Kelly removed entirely,
Andy Kershaw moved to the middle of the night,
Mark Radcliffe moved aside to make way for 'celebrity' gossip.


Anyway, more Radio 7 Doctor Who this morning, and more 'shuffle'-ing recently-acquired music:

Queen, The Orb, Judee Sill, 10cc, Herbie Hancock.

M - 3.5, T - 4; D - 4
