    End of an era

    Driving home just now I found myself listening to the last Radio 1 broadcast by Steve Lamacq.

    Wonder how much longer it will be before Radio 1 is just a home for faceless talentless presenters with no interest in anything that wasn't manufactured on X Factor / Pop Idol type dross?

    Much like with the death of John Peel, it's a sad day for real music.

    Radio 1 hasn't been the same since the likes of Steve Wright ('in the afternoon'), (ooh) Gary Davies (on my radio), Simon 'our tune' Bates, Mike 'I will NOT play that record' & Janice Long departed.

    I've done a bit about how good radio 1 was in the 80s in the next book.....
