Travel news on the cheap at the end this clip, when he rushes it within the build up news music.

Quality was 12 but loved the music 😊

When radio was at its best. Although Boom Radio is aimed at older listeners, it's brought back the spirit of great radio with some former Capital Radio DJs from this era.

Was a waiter during the summer season Torquay late 70s , loved listening to BBC radio 2 whilst working during the breakfast hours in the hotel.

Remember walking home from my local night club early hours of 1 jan 79, it started snowing we were still having blizzards early April.

I couldn’t remember the individual programme themes, remembers the generic station branding themes by David Lowe.

Radio 2 jingles were way better during the 70's & 80s unlike the sh1te they've gone with in the last couple of years!

Everysong that's been played in this brilliant radio show i brought, i sold most of my record collection a couple of years ago, its great to hear these brilliant songs again, by the brilliant DJ Tom Browne.

I can still remember listening every Sunday on my transistor radio. And it was exactly this month that I started doing that at age 9. Grateful to have been young then and not now! I always found Hot Chocolate boring but this is actually a good song.

I didn't know the charts were available on FM on Radio 1. I thought it wasn't until 1988 at the earliest.

When radio was good. Not like the rubbish of today.

Good radio station back then not now

They all sound like Bread.

That "1979!" jingle was updated for 1980 but that variant didn't seem to get much use.

I recall the Top 3 remaining unchanged for several weeks. A most underrated Hot Chocolate track featured here. 👍🏻 But Tom, suggesting Costello isn’t “the real Elvis” - how could you! 😩

I can always remember in the 1970's my mum listening to Gerald Harpers 'Sunday Affair' whilst cooking Sunday dinner some of these jingles take me back to those times

I lived in Hertfordshire and listened to Capital when it first started right through to mid 80s.It was a great station then. The best DJs. The most outstanding recognisable jingles going. Great times.

"Morning all. That was - hold on a mo. It wasn't hold on a mo, although he does feature rather regularly on this programme. That was Frank Sinatra doing it his way and taking us on to very nearly 10 past 11 by soooooo doing. Anyway. That's him gone for today but he'll be back. Talking of which, here he is, your friend and mine, Tony Deangelis. Til then, it's J.Y. saying - by for now.". (Not that I ever listened to it you understand).

5:08 bruce murray we're all alone

anyone remember the "Moment of Terror" just before the midnight news?

I can remember Pete Murray later on for one thing in his career, telling viewers watching Breakfast Time that voting Labour was a vote for communism.

The very smooth voice of Tom Browne. Unforgettable

The great Alan Moorhouse

I was only Ten years old at this time. I remember most of these hits though. I also remember radio one 247 switch to 275/285 as well. I listened most Sundays to R1 charts, up until about early 90s. Chart music today isnt a patch on these old shows.

De todos os seus tapes, esse foi o que conservou-se melhor à ação do tempo. Tão fiel no áudio como se estivesse ouvindo a emissora ao vivo, nesse momento! Parabéns!

Best DJ ever

Very Good illke the music we joy love thatbeast from msndy

What lovely nostalgia reminds me of my younger days with mum and dad listening on the little valve radio

Real DJs

How I wish that either we could go back to those times or that Terry and JY were still with us and doing the business on Radio 2.

I love these days these were the best 😢😊

The halcyon days of commercial music radio..not the pap we currently have.

also at the end of show he said be nice to your neighbour and see you next week

I miss the old capital radio 😢

Andy Collins and JVS on 3 counties radio . Are like this every morning at 9.30am

This was a fairly big deal in 1978 as FM/MW/LW was the only way to listen to radio.
