Sadly I don’t think I do as the tapes used to get listened to, extracted from and then reused so if there were any left then they would probably have Johnny Walker on them

A lot of my stuff has been in storage for most of the last 10 years – I finally got my record player and a few records out on Monday and will over the next few months be working my way though all of the stuff in there so if I come across anything I’ll let you know!

Hi Kevin,

Came across your site as was doing a Google search on Roger Scott. So miss him even after all this years. I have some of his shows mostly from a tribute site which now seems to be offline.So agree with everything you say about modern radio. Just all about the presenter or else the computer playlist! Heart has killed any hope of the return of DJ’s like Roger and Ofcom is a joke compared to the old IBA.Bet they would not have let Gobal carve up local commercial radio. As Roger said all about the market reseachers-he saw the rot coming even back in 1989!!

I was wondering if you had any of those Saturday Radio 1 shows left from those C120 cassette days. Would love to find some of his Sunday night Radio 1 shows too as I only have six of those. Have working cassette deck-mini disc and audio CD recorder so would glady do any copying required or can send blank media if you do have any of those shows which you may be willing to copy as can totally appreciate if you do have any originals left you would want to have them under lock and key.

Regards

Neal

Hi Dick, I gather from a friend of mine that you used to manage The Squad. I was a friend of Stu Burns from the late eighties till he died a few years ago. I spent a lot of time with him when we were neighbours in Greenside and Benwell and was lucky enough to be given, by him, about nine hours of cassette recordings of the music he made at home post -Squad. Its all pretty interesting, occasionally strange stuff. I have harboured the idea for a while now of creating a site where people can access these recordings. If my mate Woody is right and you did manage the Squad I wondered if you could come up with some photos of Stu, as I have none apart from the album cover. I also wonder if you are in a position to contact people in the region who would remember Stu and like to hear some of this stuff, to point them to a website/ blog/soundcloud page in memory of him.
I hope I’m sending this to the right Dick Godfrey, if not just ignore this message.
Regards
Phil Ogg
