BBC radio 1965 - 1969

 

Top Of The Pops, was a 1-hour music program (radio, not TV) hosted weekly by Brian Matthew, featuring recordings previously aired on BBC radio in the U.K.

These were assembled for syndication/export on BBC Transcription Discs outside the UK.   http://totp.torbenskott.dk

These discs were not broadcast in the U.K.

Most of these recordings had Mathew's infuriating habit of making comments, mostly idiotic, over the beginning and ending of the songs.

 

The Donovan songs on these Transcription Discs were mainly taken from the following programmes

Saturday Club (1957 - 1969 - Brian Mathew presenter) http://epguides.com/SaturdayClub

Folk Room      (1965)

Night Ride      (1968 - 1969)

Top Gear        (1964 - 1975 - Brian Mathew presenter, among others) http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/johnpeel/sessions

 

1965 - 1966 - 1967 - 1968 - 1969
