I have been involved with the music industry since I left school back in 1990
(soooo long ago). I did my first disco in the summer of the same year and
never looked back. Starting with small events and private functions like birthdays
and weddings I progressed to working in nightclubs. My enjoyment of being a
Disc Jockey finally took me to working in Dubai in the middle east. When I
returned I joined RHB and never looked back. Radio work is for me.
I joined RHB In March 2002. After completing my training I joined the committee
in November of the same year; a year later became the secretary and kept this
role for 4 years before being voted as chairman in November 2007.
Over a period of 2 years it had been my goal to acquire a computer system to enable
RHB To broadcast 24 hours a day. With the help and combined efforts of the
committee, this dream was realised in the new year of 2008 and we now have a
large range of programmes being broadcast.
I have 2 shows, the first is The Number 1 Hits Show, this is now on every Monday
between 3pm and 4pm. I have been doing this show since 2003. It comprises of a
random selection of tracks that have held the prestigious number 1 chart singles
slot since the chart began back in 1952. The first number 1 for those who don't
know was in November of 1952 and was "Al Martino" with a track called "Here In
My Heart", it stayed at number 1 for 9 weeks. I am currently working on introducing
the American number 1’s to my Show. If this is a success I may add other countries
later on.
The second show is on Tuesdays from 7pm till 8pm. Pirate Radio Hits, memorable
rock/pop 60’s music from the days of pirate radio stations such as “Radio Caroline”.
The show was inspired by a recent movie based on the 60’s pirate radio theme.
The movie can’t be named for legal reasons
My current occupation is a portrait photographer. I enjoy travelling anywhere I can
afford to get to and I love to get away in my touring caravan with my family (yes I
like to block the motorways).
Although my music taste is what can only be described as very eclectic; my
favourite band is Status Quo. It's just a shame they have only had 1 number 1
to date so I can't play them on my show very often.
