shull Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Exactly 40 years old today. A fantastic Radio Station over the decades which i still listen to. ( Only Clyde2 ) Had great people on it over the years. Frank Skerret ( The Party's Over ), Jimmy Sanderson, Richard Park, Tiger Tim, Mr Abie, Mike Riddoch and many many more. Bill Smith was a wank though. Orrabest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

class of 76-77 Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Quite possibly the most bias old firm apologist football show on the radio, can't stand the f**kers. The only decent DJ they ever had was the legend that is Tom Russell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMcD Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Living where I do lost touch with Radio Clyde years ago but I have some fond memories. I remember being mystified by requests for guys in ' The Big Hoose' and it was years before I realised it meant the Bar L. There was also a guy who did a really good book review and his favourite saying was ' a great wee read'. Can't remember his name but i think he was an executive. And talking about Tiger Tim, a friend of mine opened a record shop in Exchange Square and he invited Tim to open it. The shop was called Sounds New and Tim liked the name so much that they came to an agreement for Tim to call his show by that name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Dickson was the bloke who did the book reviews, and you're right he was an executive at the station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlucifer Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 I remember back in the days when telly wasn't 24/7 and had a massive THREE channels to indulge ourselves, Radio Clde was a godsend and break from Radio 1. FM? WTF? 261 MW was it. Doctor Dick's midnight surgery was a revelation. I remember the playout song was "Sweet dreams" Now though I cringe at the memory of listening to the sh!t with my then girlfriend who, after all these years, is my missus. Chr!$t! Just had a thought. I may soon be getting to the age when there will be a need to see a Doctor about a disfunctional............................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Richard Park and his commentary that made it onto the famous 1987 cup final record.
