There's some alarming information that you should all know regarding BBC Radio. Many of you will recall the Brand / Ross - Andrew Sachs scandal last year where the controller for Radio 2 resigned and the position was taken by Bob Shennan. It seems that Mr Shennan despises most roots music to a point where he has begun to replace the specialist shows that Radio 2 is so well known for, such as Shake Rattle & Roll, with chat shows featuring sport and incidental pop music. Mr Shennan is trying to find any excuse possible to axe Mark Lamarr completely off BBC Radio and I believe other specialist shows that feature DJs who hold a passion for real music will also receive the axe.
Long gone will be rock'n'roll, rockabilly, blues, reggae, ska, soul, vocal group, jazz & world music from BBC Radio 2, a station that for several decades has been a national institution. What we all forget is we own the BBC. They're forever telling us it's our station, and so it is. It's a public funded network, and we're entitled to have our say.
If this information means anything to you then you must complain to the BBC and let them know how you feel. Fill out the BBC Trust survey at their website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctrust/
Just imagine thousands of emails every hour to Radio 2. Spread the word, and who knows where all this will end up. It might even be time for another march, but one things for sure, they ain't getting away with it.
