Radio 1

Not the breakfast show.
Or, if avoidable, the DREEM TEEM

Radio WM, (West Midlands).

Radio 3.

They have a great eclectic mix of music - classica, jazz, blues, opera, rock, folk, avant-garde, all sorts.

Plus they are the only station, BBC or independent, which plays anything approaching the sort of music I like.

I might almost have written that myself!

That makes 2 of us out of...what?...20 odd!

BBC Radio 4 Very occasionally pop by Radio 3, and it does do some good stuff (First time I heard Steve Reich was on Radio 3 ) but not enough for me to go to it more than twice a year or so Until later....
BCNU - Crescent

BBC 4 from 06:00 until 09:00 then I've heard enough about the tragedies in the world.

09:00-18:00 Music from my collection (I could kiss the person who invented MP3's)

18:00 until I fall asleep BBC7 - it's the only thing worth having a Sky box for

vibe fm....in the east of england up to the minute top of the charts stuff

i really like talksport,im driving most of the night and you get a bit bored with music,but reception has gone for some reason.
im into radio 2 at the mo,
bob harris on a saturday and the critical list and essential album.
steve wright in the afternoon,
johnathon ross on a saturday morning.

Radio 2, chiefly for the fairly juvenille reason that the presenters seem to get away with saying the sort of things throughout the day that would have Mary Whitehouse spinning in her grave. Why on Earth there isn't some sort of outcry from the NVLA I have no idea. They also play a damn fine mix of music. I do also listen to Radio 4 in the evenings.

i agree,how johnathon ross hasnt been taken off i'll never know.in the old days r2 was the oldies station,now its pretty cool,mind you i am nearly 40,but i also listen to bits of r1 like the rock show on a tues night and his worship john peel.

It's not just Jonathan Ross though, I mean, Sarah Kennedy and Terry Wogan both go close to the bone, and their both on early morning slots . Maybe Auntie Beeb thinks no-one listens to the radio anymore, or maybe no-one important at the Beed listens to Radio 2

I used to listed to talkradio..before it changed to talksport..that ruined it for me..never listened to it since....

sarah kennedy makes me laugh,she gets things all mixed up and she's never heard of lots of well known bands and singers("turin breaks obviously a band from italy")

6 Music has been a godsend for all those of us worried that we were about to be sucked into Radio 2 for lack of anything better, now that they have ditched Jimmy Young and got into Led Zeppelin. I can't think of anything worse than being a R2 listener, so to have a station that plays good classics and new stuff without the irritating idiocy that plagues Radio 1 is just brilliant.

Kerr- everything you say about Radio 2 is true! If only we could shoot Steve Wright it truly would be a wonderful station.

steve wrights not that bad(except his weekend show),i remember him on radio 1 in the afternoon, all those crazy characters.........mmm!perhaps your right.
I've got my telly wired up to the hi fi and sometimes i'll record radio 6 of the sattilite onto a tape and listen later in the car, i record bob harris every saturday night.

on the odd occasion that i have the radio on, its tuned to radio 2.
they seem to be playing the kind of music that i listened to, im my radio 1 days, many moons ago.

i usually listen to it on a sunday morning(don maclean, steve wright), as im reading the sunday papers.

my alarm clock/radio is tuned to beacon fm, only because i cant find any other station without the shash noises. but i dont use the alarm very often.

blaue augen,

WXRT is 93.1, and it's still the same. And it's one of my favorites as well.
