'The DK Box': 53 Shows from 2000

[billfromnorthwales]

I just can't resisting posting this again...

Back in 1976 John Peel and Alan Freeman played a lot of the same
artists on their respective radio shows, and mostly the same people
listened to both radio shows.

However Alan Freeman was earlier than Peel in doing the end of year
countdowns, but rather than have listeners choices, Freeman based
his chart on album sales.

So here I present - The Alan Freeman Top 50 of 1976

Part 1 is here
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9LZJWJ35
Part 1 was recorded on Saturday 1st January 1977
2 hours @ 192kbs numbers 42 to 26

This is 2 hours of the 3 hour show starting at number 42 (fades in
slowly) Unfortunately I missed the first hour and the first 8 records


Part 2 is here
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=M8DIDKQD
Part 2 was recorded on Monday 3rd January 1977.
3 hours @ 192kbs numbers 25 to 1


This is full 3 hour show starting at number 25 

Welcome DK
