      The Radio Two logo from the Grove days is owned by Groove Addicts – Hence the change in 2012 as royalties were still due on the Groove Logo even if they did not make the jingles – hence once the new jingles were bedded in a revised version of each jingle to gently introduce a new updated logo ( better value for the licence payer) was produced

        There’s the story of how WABC changed one note in their logo so that they were no longer paying the rights to the writer of ‘We’ll Take Manhattan’ (Cole Porter), plus lots of other insights:

          Correction to my own comment – not Cole Porter but Rodgers & Hart

            Thanks guys! It is though still a blur whether TM or Reelworld pays a fee to JAM for any KIIS / Z100 / etc logo use. Or JAM to PAMS for WABC…

              I think Jon would give himself a really good deal for PAMS material as he moves a few cents from one side of the desk to the other…..
