      Thanks for posting that Iain – it's one of my favourite tracks,and really strikes a chord with anyone who loves the medium of radio or has worked in it. Rex is the last of a dying breed .. non playlisted,totally in touch with his audience,and a real “we play what we want” DJ who the suits want to change- so he locks himself in the studio!

      A great song with that cracking line from the judge at the end …”your boss thinks you're wrapped up too tight…but by the way,thanks for playing Moon River last night..”

      In fact the lyrics are here…

      Read them and you get the story of how individuality in radio has been ruined by the £ or the $ . All radio bosses that go chasing after the money should be made to sit down and listen to it…

        Ironically Dave, I understand that song was written in…1989! When Australian Consultants were unheard of in the UK…
