Hi Big John, I may give it a try from time to time but I find non stop oldies to be a bit much. I usually listen to Carnaby Street on Manx and Listen again to Sounds of the Sixties with Tony Blackburn but that is my 60s dose for the week.
We all have opinions. Mine is mine, yours is yours. Don't tell me yours is mine. I think that I was wrong once, but then again, maybe I was wrong!!
Yes- I agree with you number6 - that’s whats lacking with Atlantis. Too narrow a music source- since its just confined to a ten year time-frame. Hopefully Boom will avoid this restriction- but you have to be careful how recent you go. I reckon 50’s to 80’s is about right at the moment. One thing I am worried about is that they try to be ‘too cool’ . Remember Absolute 60’s - they were so ‘ cool’ they didn’t even play Cliff! I suspect this was because they thought they could attract millennials as listeners. But they didn’t- and at the same time turned off all us Boomers. You have to remember that Ken Dodd, Val Doonican, Petula Clark, Jim Reeves , Johnny Ray even Charlie Drake and Bernard Cribbins all had massive hits in the younger lives of Boomers. So far I’ve noticed a concentration of 70’s tunes in the Boom playlist. I just hope this isn’t the way they are going to go. They certainly stand a better chance than most of their rivals- because they have the money behind them. The jury’s out as far as I’m concerned. Watch this space!!
Having listened to Boom for a few days now I am beginning to wonder whether they are practising what they preach. It seems to be a 70’s station more than anything. OK- there was some good music in that era- but it is too heavily concentrated on that time to the exclusion of other decades. I was hoping for a full integrated music offering but I get the feel of a London-based 70’s commercial station. Can’t see them lasting.
Hi Alec, Do you have any idea of the date/presenter etc. please? I may find out some things when I listen but I would like to save it as an appropriately named file.

Sorry #6 - no, I haven't - I just copied the Link and pasted it on here - Usualy the Mixcloud page tells the line up when given in by the author (uploader) - You find many more offshore recordings on the bottom of the Mixcloud page mostly with more infos about the line-ups. --- If you cannot download from Mixcloud page itself, use https://offliberty.online/ as download tool
Listen in on 648 AM in the South and South-East, on 1368 AM in the North and North-West courtesy of Manx Radio , on the Radio Caroline app, on smart speakers and around the world online at radiocaroline.co.uk We're land-based again this month because of pandemic restrictions, but hope to be back on our radio ship Ross Revenge very soon - watch this space!

when you go on 'Mixcloud' page e.g. with the Link a few threads above there is a 'Search bar' - Just give in e.g. Radio Caroline or RNI then many, many more historical recordings will show up
