Let’s hear your voice on The Classic Rock Show ‘Birthday Bash’!!

Hello Rockers!!

As you may already be aware, The Classic Rock Show will be celebrating its 4th Birthday on 14th November 2013. Dawn (from The Friday Rock Night on Felixstowe Radio), one of my longest serving listeners, and my broadcast buddy, Bex from ‘Bex Rocks‘ will be joining me at some point during the evening. They’ll be sharing stories and a joke or two along the way, but what I’m really keen to hear is your voice on-air too.

If you have a smartphone, there are free apps available for download that can record your voice. In 10secs or less, tell us why it is you listen to The Classic Rock Show. If you also fancy recording a Birthday message as well, feel free. I’ll edit them up ready for broadcast during the Birthday Bash show.

Send them over to me in mp3 format via a Facebook PM to my personal account, or message via The Classic Rock Show Facebook Page.

Cheers
MJx

Part 3 of 5 in our series of #ClassicRock Specials celebrating the 70s continues at 7pm tonight

Yes, indeed….it’s a celebration alright!

We kicked off this series of shows with the years 1970 and 1971 – you can listen to Part 1 here >>> http://ow.ly/nn3Ng.

Part 2 covered the years 1972 and 1973 – you can listen to Part 2 here >>> http://ow.ly/oEVph.

Part 3 will focus on music from ’74 and ’75, years in which the events that grabbed the headlines included the Smallpox Epidemic in India, Tom Baker becomes the fifth Doctor Who, West Germany Wins 1974 World Cup, 1975 sees Bill Gates and Paul Allen create the company Microsoft, and in the UK, Coal Miners receive a 35% pay rise and the price of petrol rises by almost 70%!!

Hope you will join us for what will be a trip down memory lane for some and for others one which helps put into context the music of the day against the backdrop of everyday life in the Seventies.

We’ll hear tracks from Suzi Quatro, David Bowie, Genesis, Supertramp, Budgie, Slade, The Sweet, Yes, Mott The Hoople, The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Rush, Hawkwind, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Blue Oyster Cult, The Who, Alice Cooper, Wings, Aerosmith and many more.
