Favourite national radio DJ past and present

[Gnasher]

Pete Price is excluded as hed obviously win both by a country mile or he'd file a lawsuit against Dave and the site.

 

From personal experience I find rsidio jocks better today than those of yesteryear when to get a slot on national radio you had to be either 

 

a closet pervert.

a closet nonce.

a closet paedophile.

dress like a clown.

act like Timmy Mallet.

or behave like an utter fuckwit.

Or be all of the above.

 

Anyway me two faves. 

Recent. Craig Charles.  Past Johnny Walker.

Alan "Fluff" Freeman.

 

His enthusiasm for rock and metal shone through. And his spoken links were always boss.

 

I had a period when I was on the road so I used to tape his programmes and play them in the car. he was brilliant.

 

Also Tommy Vance, and John Peel goes without saying. When I was a kid I used to record his prog for my brother when he went to the pub. The night Forest knocked us out of teh European Cup he started his programme with YNWA, said "never mind lads", and launched into his programme.

About 1980 I got my first flat, I remember just being able to get a radio show from NI, Dave Banny I think, no bollocks or anything as far as I can recall just gave you who it was and details of whatever he was playing, got into some good stuff through him.Tom Waits etc

I enjoyed Wogan on Radio 2. I also really liked Chris Evans breakfast show. 

 

Johnny Vaughan is superb on Radio X, 4 till 7. Seriously funny. 

 

Vernon Kay used to do a slot in the mornings on a sunday on Radio 1. He used to play loads of 90's music and none of the usual modern Radio 1 stuff. That was the only time I'd listen to that station.

Was it on here where I seen a clip of Alan Freeman pop up and go wow and gestured with his head to  come along. Thinking on it was the mate who sent it and he probably seen it on here.

No, him and Chris Moyles both went to Radio X at the same time, then Vernon Kay left. I never heard anything of him since.

I do think it is a lot harder being on it than shouting the answers out at home
