To be honest chris, when i wrote that bit about the 60s and 70s music being diverse, i was thinking todays music is too. Even tho i'm in my mid 50s, i still like raw type music, i hate all that "boom boom boom shite" but bands like the pigeon detectives and the fratellis i like, along with quite a bit more. I do like oldies too, probably coz some of them bring some good memories back, but the thing that gets me about Oldies Stations, is that they play the same songs over and over again, unlike Big L, who play some really obscure oldies,and good oldies which no one else seem to play. I listen to Big L on MW/AM, even tho i can listen on line, old habits and all that. Your point about Offshore Radio and if it ever comes back, what sort of format should it take, well a DJ format, like when radio was enjoyable and not bland background music. All the best LA and 73s
