Re: Who was the best sounds of the 60s host on BBC Radio 2 ?
+ 1 to Rob A’s comments. Would be interested to hear from those who heard Simon Dee or Keith F, but yes Mathew sounded scripted. I too saw the Blackburn live show recently and agree with those observations. Having seen the Sensational 60s (which has real artists and is well worth checking out) I was and remained iffy throughout about the covers band. Blackburn is at his best doing this sort of thing. My wife enjoyed it which is praise indeed as she has ‘moved on’ musically from the 60s (and indeed the 80s). The delivery was reminiscent of his 1980s Radio London soul show. PS fab visit to the ship on Saturday - the best day weather wise, looked good at sunset.
