[Music] Sound of the Sixties/Tony Blackburn.

[Leekbrookgull]

Apart from the 'jokes/quips' got to say (and working most Saturdays 6/2) best part of the day. Played this on his last show,heard of this band but none of there hits. :whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AkAkSe2Ha0&list=RD8AkAkSe2Ha0&start_radio=1ave:

I even like his jokes and quips. Best program on the radio. He’s got a brilliant knowledge of pop music, is an entertainer and comes across as a decent bloke.

Haven't the establishment found a reason to hang, draw and quarter him for sex abuse yet? Naughty Govt!

Been there.

It has been claimed veteran DJ Blackburn “seduced” her in 1971. He strongly denies the allegation. Kelly, who was pictured with Claire on stage during a Top of the Pops show in 1971 dancing alongside a smirking Savile, made a string of bombshell claims about the seedy side of Top of the Pops.

Doesn’t sound very convincing to me

Times were very different and I don’t accept he was or is a paedo

 

[Don Tmatter]

Preferred Brian Mathew’s show on a Sat morning

 

[Uncle C]

At least he is competent enough to conduct the whole show on his own without the need to have some air brained bint sharing the show.

He had the most wonderful voice for Radio.

I like Blackburn's show - and his Golden Hour early Friday evenings - just wish the Saturday show was an hour or so later!

If you mean by the way Simon Mayo was paired up with Jo Wiley i fully agree,yet stand alone Jo sits in well on the Ken Bruce show for me.

Friend of mine had his single picked up as Tony Blackburn's Hit Pick of The Week.

Kiss of death of course.

If that's having a go at Jo Whiley, she is far from an air-brained bint.

If it's having a go at Simon Mayo, he proved himself well capable of doing his own show before he was matched with Jo Whiley.

And being old enough to remember Tony Blackburn opening Radio 1 in the 1960s, I would prefer either of those two to him any day.
