In 1999 I with others set up pirate radio station called DRK RADIO.
It was great fun and lasted for about one year.
There was some great djs playing blues to rock pop and a bit of everything.
The djs names were in code so the powers that be did not know who we were.
There was the silver fox
The hairy man
Dj hacker
Billy the kid
Togge
Chris Carroll
And many more.
What I would like to do now is start it again on this board.
You be the dj and find the music video you want to play on YouTube and post a link on here.
You can also post a video of you talking about the song you picked if you like.
And the next posted do the same.
I will get the ball rolling

This was the very first song played at live aid.
Not a great song, but we have to start with something.
Can you do better, please join in.
I believe Richard Harris was the first to record that song.
I remember reading that Jimmie Page (one of the best guitarists of all time) from Led Zeppelin had bought Harris's home that was a castle.
‘I gotta wear shades’……..catchy tune. I think I can use that in a video I’m doing for someone….who is getting divorced. LOL
‘I’m alright”………whatever happened to Loggins??
‘Stray cats’……… I always liked that group.
I really like rat rods. Have built many a rat motorcycle but always wanted to do something with a rod.
Two rat rods I know………
Candy……….hummmmmmm……..I can see why she’s called ‘candy’. Hubba hubba.
(oh…..and she’s a good musician also)
Edyta Górniak….won’t let us watch it over here across the pond. T’is verboden.
Kate Bush……….is she Tiny Tim’s lost sister? I had the sound cranked up and she broke two windows and made my toaster pop. I think every dog in the neighbourhood is now at the front door. She certainly is ~~~~~~~~ different! Like scotch….I think I’ll have to gain a taste for her.
Highway to Hell……AC/DC ………. That’s better…….now we’re back to sanity……or insanity! Either way……it’s a good trip! Angus is one wild guitar man!!!!!!!!!!
I play their music whenever I’m in my classic car. (I need more speakers)
Do it Angus…….. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVIVvOqBHps
Angus Young…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avSyxcKZb9A
But Jimmy in my personal estimation is still the best …… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bv_mNtI9P3o
Maravilloso …. Not sure what to do with it. Feels like a soft 2001 Odessey.
Robin Williams…LOL…he’s always good. I have always felt that he might be a hard man to live with from a wife standpoint. Most comedians and those who think they are, are actually very insecure people.
Lana Del Ray (Elizabeth Woolridge Grant) …… yes interesting voice. I thought she had an accent so I looked her up and she’s from New York. Maybe it’s a really thick New York accent.
Tanita Tikaram…yes another interesting voice. (where do you find these singers I’ve never heard of? You must listen to music 24/7!!!!….or I need to????
Tracy Chapman………ah yes…….class act!
Suzanne Vega …interesting again….but they need to crank her vocals up.
I’ll try for some offerings tomorrow. I’m on vacation (such as it is) and it’s been a longgg day. 1:23 am and my glass is empty and my pillow calls.
Zzzzzzzzzzzz
