The station way over at the right hand end of the AM dial was a
christian station for the last couple of years, but all it did was
play the very same broadcast as one a few notches further in which was
right next to another christian station. This was interesting
especially when they broadcast Darren Live with Darren and Barbara
Billings on both of the christian stations which were right next to
each other and on the duplicate station as well. Well not interesting
exactly. Today I tuned in and found the duplicate station had become
RADIO DISNEY. When they aren't playing the poppiest pop music or
poppy pop rehashes of all your "favorite" disney songs, like the
hip-hop version of Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf, or the
alternarock version of Louie Prima's Jungle Book song I Wanna Be Like
You, they are talking about one and only one thing. RADIO DISNEY.
It's a continuous self-advertisement, as if they are practicing to be
the new world government. Heh. "As if."

19.00 Clear Spot -- Mark Paytress
Writer Mark Paytress will be weaving in original 45s recorded as a schoolboy
in those public recording booths that were a feature of earlya 70s Britain
and naive attempts at domestic teenage recording, through to punk's green
light that meant stage perfomances, the boom in cheap 4-track equipment
that meant near professional 'homework' - climaxing in a visit to a
'proper' recording studio in 1991. Along the way, we'll meet veterans of
the same scene that PJ Harvey grow out from (Dorset!), hear recordings from
the first two Ecstacy parties in Britain (1986), in a band that also
featured future Silverfish singer Lesley and Liam 'Toe Rag Studios' Watson.
