  • Sounds of The 70s with Gary Jackson 6 July 23
    Jul 6 2023
    ROX Radio Presents
    SOUNDS OF THE 70S
    With Gary Jackson
    From Punk to disco, prog rock to reggae, the 70s had it all, and every genre is covered in this show. Sounds Of The 70s is a well worn format in a one hour show, and when you include events ‘on this day’, the ‘sloppy bit in the middle’, the ‘Book Of Days’ and the closing ‘chart entry’ feature plus one or two requests, it’s a packed hour!
    Like many radio presenters, I started as a mobile DJ. In 1976!! From there I went on to hospital radio, and when the FM frequency beckoned I jumped at the chance to join Skyline Gold in Southampton.
    Gary Comments" It soon became apparent that other stations were sometimes short of presenters, and the norm in those days was to play automated music. In 2011 I offered a show to Forest FM – Sounds Of The 70s – which I still present there to date, and I soon realised that here was a gap that needed filling elsewhere.
    Other stations followed including the legendary 1260KYA in San Francisco, Castledown Radio in Wiltshire, and the Bigl, today’s equivalent of 60s pirate station Radio London. (I have been broadcasting live on the BigL from my south coast studio six days a week since 2013).
    Soon stations all over the world started airing the shows. Some have used the shows for a while then replaced them with live presenters when available, others have given them their own permanent slots.
    Many people have asked who was my favourite interviewee, and the answer has to be Stu Cook of Creedence Clearwater Revival. Not only did Stu give me around twenty minutes, he was happy to talk about the days when things weren’t good, and after all, Creedence was my all time favourite band in the 70s.
    For the 60s, it has to be The Searchers who are friends, and I have published their official website since 1997. As I have often said “On the rare occasions when things were hard going I went to see The Searchers. Their sheer hard work and professionalism put me to shame and gave me the kick up the backside I needed”.
    My shows often feature guests, and interviews have included chats with Frank Allen of The Searchers – always a delight, Mike Rutherford (Genesis), Paul Carrack (Mike and The Mechanics, Squeeze), Justin Hayward, Alan Clark (Dire Straits), Tom McGuiness of Manfred Mann, Deborah Bonham, Simon Townsend, Stu Cook (Creedence) Dave Clark (Dave Clark Five) and just about every other 60s band still working!
    Not only that but household names like Jenny Eclair and Toyah Willcox have also joined me!
    My live radio work has taken me to California, and my shows now air from Tenerife to Tasmania!
    Very much a fan of personality radio, I try to remember that the listener comes first, I try to give my shows a live feel and keep listeners interested with features like the “A side B side”, “same difference” and the “slipped disc” song."

  • ROX Skool 6 July Fake musician news
    Jul 6 2023
    ROX Radio Presents
    ROX SKOOL
    ROX Radio brings you a great interview, documentary, concert or feature from rock's past,
    present or future trends in rock and metal.
    This week: Musician Fake News
    Here's some fun for the week. Often musicians will create a false story and the press will run with it. About a month ago, Diddy suggested he was paying Sting thousands of dollars per day for the use of a song. Everyone reported it. It was not true. Fake News. We have a whole list of other fake music news.
    Brought to you by ROX Network.

    Joe and Tammy Burns
    As of August 2015, my wife Tammy joins me as the full time Rock School co-host. That makes four co-hosts now. Name them? OK. Chad P. Best West. Monique Gregoire. And now Tammy. It's like she's the lead singer for Van Halen.
    It's only fitting. We met at a radio station in Florence Alabama - WQLT, 107FM. It was a 100,000 watt flame-thrower stuck way up in the corner of the state. I was the afternoon jock and she was the copywriter. That meant she wrote the commercials. We dated even though we had both signed a document at the station saying we wouldn't.
    I knew she really liked me when I got a job programming an AM/FM in Utica, New York and she left with me. We married less than a year later.
    She been with me through seven radio stations, six states, a masters degree and a Ph.D. and two children we adopted from Guatemala. We've been married pushing 27 years so it look slike it's going to stick I guess.
    Her? Oh, well, she's from Hackleburg, Alabama, has two undergraduate degrees which she paid for through work and student loans, a respiratory degree and a respiratory registry. She's worked at level one hospital trauma wards in three major cities and has stories that would make your toes curl.
    She currently sells drugs - she's a pharmaceutical rep.
    And she hosts a radio show. Did I mention that?
