Time After Time - Room 101 at The VIntage Hour

How about a little light relief for a change. My very good friend, Mister Dave Ireland, presents a weekly radio show. This week, the theme is Room 101, that famous place we all love to visit when the clock strikes 13 and it's 1984...
So, have some fun with Dave...

Time After Time - Room 101 at The Vintage Hour

Posted on 14 Sep 2012 by Time After Time

Welcome to Time After Time – The Vintage Hour…

Hi – I’m Dave Ireland…why not join me for the next sixty minutes as we journey back in time for some of the best in vintage music from the 1920s to the 1970s and way beyond…

Walking through the vast offices and studios of Stroud FM is a bit like walking through the Labyrinth of Knossos…mile upon mile of endless passageways and corridors…and just this morning I came across a cobwebbed covered door…Laura and I shouldered it open and, oh my goodness…all the nightmare tunes you never wanted to hear again piled high from wall to ceiling!

The Birdy Song…a couple of Englebert Tunes…Charles Hawtry’s Greatest Hit…and the ballad of Jock and Yono…

Yes, you’ve guessed it…it was Stroud FM’s very own Room 101…So this week…what’s going in, never to be heard again – and what’s staying out to grace the airwaves?

Here’s a list of the tunes…see if you can guess which tunes went down the chute and which ones we managed to save. Join me and Laura, with Sam, Cas Greenfield and Lady Lavinia as we open the door to Room 101.

• Hoagy Carmichael – Barnacle Bill The Sailor• Gracie Fields – The Bargain Hunter• Everybody Loves My Baby (But My Baby Don’t Love Nobody But Me) – Clarence Williams’ Blue 5 Featuring Louis Armstrong.• Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson – Sing Little Birdie• Fred Astaire – They Can’t Take That Away From Me• Ray Noble – Sailing On The Rebert E.
