- Capital Radio 194 Jingles, Adverts and DJs (Vol. 6)
Michael Aspel, Dave Cash, Adrian Love, Roger Scott, Mike Allen, Nicky Horne, Greg Edwards, Kerry Juby, Tony Myatt, Gerald Harper - and tons of Kenny Everett.
Some great vintage ads too - Houndsditch Warehouse, Brook Street Temporary, Brent Cross, Art Wallpapers, Curry Motors (nice people to do business with).
This is the sixth volume I’ve compiled of jingles and ads from the golden age of Capital Radio - please check out the other volumes on my channel. - Zábava
I remember going to the Houndsditch warehouse as a little kid. Just round the corner from Petticoat Lane. Then we’d all go to Tubby Issac’s for some seafood. We always had Capital on in the car…a light blue Ford Anglia, me on the back seat playing with my Dinky Eagle Transporter in brown nylon flares and a tank top.
All I can say those were the great period of Radio Broadcast, and the catchy Jingles. I'm so glad to be born in that era. So you can imagine how sorry I feel for todays generation, with the kind of Radio rubbish they listen to. Even todays Radio presenters cannot hold a candle to the great DJ's, Kenny Everett, Roger Scott, Nicky Horn, Michael Aspel, Mike Smith, Roger Allen etc. Life was so simple and great 70's and 80's. Take me back on a time machine to re-live those magic moments.
Thanks for your comment - I totally agree.
Great memories ❤ Greg Edwards..... Capital Radio was great
Capital Radio was my only comfort during a horrible period of school bullying in 1982/1983. I also had the 10 years anniversary book from that year - I would love to get a copy.
And not forgetting the Capital Radio ‘Helpline’. Launched in the late 1970’s it was the first generic helpline, in the days when the only other 24 hour phone service was the Samaritans. It was innovative and ahead of it’s time.
Sad that so many of these names are no longer with us: Kenny Everett, Mike Allen, Roger Scott, Kerry Juby, Dave Cash, Tommy Vance.....
The sound of my childhood! I was obsessed with the original Capital Radio, loved everything about it as a kid and young adult. The DJ’s, the music and those amazingly catchy jingles! Thanks so much for these videos 👏👏🤗
You're very welcome! During this era, Capital had a real sense of community as well as a very distinctive personality. Nowadays FM chart music radio all sounds very generic and anodyne.
Totally agree. Great memories 😊
Wonderful memories..Mike Allen gives you just a little bit more, Mike Allen on Capital 194 💃🥳😹
Ohh my how I miss this radio station, those DJ's' voices.. so special, especially Roger Scott and Kenny, the amazing jingles..oh what losses.. What happy memories.. This has made me cry with sadness and joy at finding this!
Glad you enjoyed, Michelle! Wasn't Capital a wonderful station back then? It had a very distinctive personality and a real sense of community. I've posted a total of six compilations of Capital DJs and jingles, so do hunt down the others on my channel!
Sounds of our youth
Cuddly Kenny Everett was so talented and so funny. Listening to this just shows us how much talent, entertaining and fun the radio was.. today, it is so boring and the presenters are even more boring.. we also had the best music compared to today!! imo
Fantastic! I so miss Kenny Everett, Roger Scott, and co. The golden age of radio. Feels like yesterday…
I loved that compilation - thank you! It took me right back to going to college in London in "81. A tiny bed-sit, a mono radio and Capital to stop me getting home sick
This is great hearing this, I remember it all. I'm almost emotional listening to it.
Thanks for your comment - I'm glad it brings back memories for you!
I miss the days of cuddly Ken and captain Kremmen on a Saturday afternoon, Such happy times ,
Agreed! Thanks for commenting 🙂
Feels great...That warm nostalgia takes me back.
Good to see you back for more Capital memories!

These are just......amazing. Memory overload. 👍👍👏👏 Back when radio had individual personality. Now, almost all radio are owned by Global(don't know the proper name) which I don't trust and find quite sinister.
It was the regulated laws we had up until the late '80s that protected radio from the generic conglomerates with narrow playlists we have today. That's the paradox where the belief was that the more stations we have the better the choice. That and technology giving us voice tracking, networking, safety play and bland production.
The most atmospheric jingle ever made is at 4:20
Absolutely
Love it
Fantastic 😅
Patrick Allen doing the voiceover for Currie Motors. I used to work for them at Stamford Hill branch 82-86. South African owned
hey thanks i needed this
excellent compilation: my favourite at 04:43 a perfect late night jingle sung (I think) by Madeleine Bell
Awesome
It was Madeline Bell, yes. Was in Blue Mink with Roger Greenaway who also composed a lot of the Capital jingles at that (glorious) time.
This is so amazing. I’m originally from South Africa and we had Capital Radio 604 based on 194. It was the most iconic station in our radio history. It was my inspiration to become a presenter. There is an online version that I listen to and brings back some incredibly happy memories of my youth. This video make me very happy. Thank you for sharing
Wonderful ❤
Nice to see you again!
@thetragicyouth Cheers...I'm hooked.
I remember the ‘Eye in the Sky’ traffic information.
Cuddly uncle Ken
The jingle shot at 10:15 is taken from Beacon Radio 303's first package in 1976.
What's the 194 mean,capital radio today is 95.8 FM,did it use to be on another number on the FM dial back in the 80s,its moved
In the 1970s, before it was on FM, Capital was on MW (Medium Wave) - firstly on 539, then on 194.
@@thetragicyouthCapital was always on FM from the very first day - 95.8 VHF
blame thatcher milk snatcher for screwing up true independent radio
Really, how?
