Special requests:

  • From Tony Matthews: I’m after the star wars montage jingle that Martin Day used to play at the start of his show circa 1999. It used to make my hair stand on end when I was driving home in the mornings after a night shift. I’d be most grateful if you would be able to locate it for me…

If you’re looking for an audio clip, or have any suggestions, please drop me a mail, and I’ll try to help – Pete

    I listened a lot to Essex Radio in Holland. In the early eighties, the days Terry Davis was working there. I lived near the coast and the reception was good. I always liked the station a lot. I’m wondering why there are so little audioclips of the programs left. I have a clip from Terry Davis announcing me as the winner of a competition. He read out a line of a song lyric and you had to guess what is was. I guessed right and won miraculously………………….
