It's show 400!!! To celebrate this milestone, I am paying homage to the man who introduced me to more great music than anyone, who inspired me to always want to do a rock show on radio, and on whose show I based the format of the BRS.
The show usually starts at 7pm but this week it will be from 630pm:
630pm to 715pm: Songs and bands introduced to me by Tommy.
715pm to 915pm: Tommy Vance - Friday Rock Show 2nd January 1981 (BBC Sessions - White Spirit, Queen 1977)
915pm to 10pmish: More songs and bands introduced to me by Tommy.
Hope you can join me!!
IMPORTANT: Sorry everyone, but due to problems with our broadcast service provider (for the first time since bloody February!!!) I have to postpone cos I don't know if it will be sorted by 630pm. It will now be at the same time NEXT Wednesday ( aka the 14th). To say I am gutted is an understatement.
Night all :)
DON'T LET IT END!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apparently American radio stations were shocked to find out the Gillan "revealed" this song was about anal sex in a recent interview ha ha

Featuring ONE Steve Morse!!!
I did say this session was one you didn't want to miss.
Is this yes with a different singer?
I am loving this so much.
Yep
You know what's coming, right?
I still have this album on vinyl. The Cd is about £100 so guess what will be appearing in the Vinyl Hour soon.
What an album! Novembers Album of the Month.
I wish I could say the same ha ha
Any ideas on the connection?????????????????????
er the gifs for this one are too hot even for this show!!!
We like a bit of cheek here on the BRS...
and the line up that eventually did the album...
This is the original version of the song from Abominog, written by John Sloman before he then quit the band. Thank god cos the Pete Goalby version is awesome.
Haha was right this time but wasn't gonna say :P
