My other interests as a child were football (I know you call it soccer) and cricket.
I particularly like guitar and organ-led underground rock. We all wanted to get the latest underground album and we listened to one another’s records a lot. There was also Radio Luxembourg, but it mostly promoted major label artists and was only available in the evenings when the signal would often fade or become distorted.įriends were also a big influence on my musical likes and dislikes. There was real synergy between these times of great musical innovation and the UK’s first taste of commercial radio (albeit offshore, which gave it a delightful amateurism at times) as the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) had a monopoly of the airwaves prior to this and played very little rock and pop at all. 1966-69 were the golden years of rock and pop music in my view. In 1966 when I was 14 pirate radio was at its zenith. I was heavily into music from a young age and always listened to the radio whenever I could. I was born in 1952 and grew up mostly in Oxford, England. Where did you grow up and what can you tell me about some of your early influences?
