      Beacon Radio/Free Radio in ‘Wolverhampton And Black Country’ hits 40 years old on the 12th April and to mark the event, I’ve decided to put together a little compilation of some of the stations voices and jingles. Cheers to all the contributions made to this compilation through either http://www.aircheckdownloads.com and David Lloyd’s Radio Moments.

      Grab it here…

          …and the Prof has something over on the “S/C side panel bit that never seems to get any links to it in the main Forum…”

                    It was a great weekend of radio and a credit to Andy Walters and WCR for putting it all together. Brilliant hearing the voices from all the differing eras of Beacon and even Free Radio, plus a tribute to The Wolf as well. Highlights for me were definitely Myatt & Perry, KKJ, Mick Wright, Gordon Astley (using his WM JAM accapella! ;) ), Fresh & Jo and Dick Fisher. It was also nice that those who are no longer with us such as Mike Baker, Pat Foley, Rory Morrison and Peter Craig also receiving acknowledgement.

                    Talking about montages…here is the Beacon montage I compiled after the rebrand…
