Still got my copy too Mike, which I`ve just recently transfererd onto DVD. What I like about it (apart from the heavy use of JAM jingles !) is the part about the late John Peel – IMHO one of the best broadcasters ever in the UK and guess who`s got 946 aircheck tapes of John Peel.

must get around to putting mine onto dvd too.
it was probably more of a collector’s item than say a best selling film-a rare item to treasure forever.a great bit of history i think.

From memory, wasn’t there also a Radio 1 film ‘short’ that screened in cinemas sometime in the 1970s? Anyone else remember that?

I remember that film, it featured a lot of the road-show jingles at that time which we`ve subsequently found out to be from EMIson and PAMS. Years ago I did try and track that film down without success.

Another film about Radio One was a TV show in the 1970s which compared “jobs” past and present. They featured Noel Edmonds on the R1 breakfast and compared it to a guy called John Snagg who did the breakfast show on the BBC in the 1940s.

This show is archived at the BBC but not available to us plebs !

Guess who rolled cassette-tape on that TV show…. (VCR, DVD not invented then !).

If I remember rightly, there`s a bit were Noel Edmonds is talking about the use of jingles (JAM`s 1976 package) if I can find it, I`ll upload it here.

Was it called “Radio One on the Road”? There will be a copy at the National Film & Television Archive but, like the BBC, it will be difficult to get a screening, let alone a copy. A Jinglemad gathering might just qualify to persuade the NFT to supply a copy!

Spot on Guy ! – it was “Radio One on the road”. I saw it purely by accident, I think we went to see Jaws and the Radio One film was the “B” movie, wasn`t even advertised. It shows you Tony Blackburn using the road-show jingle carts and the thousands of people who attended the Radio One roadshows in those days.

There`s a similar bit of video footage in the BBC video that gameswizard initially posted about. In that bit you see Steve Wright playing an AJ Production cart “Summer 87” and then a JAM jingle “The Radio one road-show” and then into a liner-cart by Adrian Juste, “today live….”

it plays using an online windows media player.if you have windows media player 10 i wouldnt have thought you’d have any problems watching it.
get windows media player 10 HERE
if your still having problems i’ll upload it to my webspace and provide a link to download it.

I also recorded the audio from that R1 Past and Present programme with Noel Edmonds. Barras is right it is the 76 package because the date of the filming was Tuesday January 18th 1977. Noel refers to the “School Report” jingle – ‘an opening accapella and some music to talk over’.

I have cleaned it up and put it on CD but alas have never been taught how to upload or link it to my webspace

The R1 bits run to about 12mins.

If you know how to do this – please enlighten me !

If you liked this,just wait for Hirsty’s bit in the forthcoming Jingle Documentary being made by a friend of Jinglemad.com,Robin Hollings.

For those people lucky enough to be at the NW Radio Night who’ve seen the rushes, it pays tribute to that part of the video!
