Remember when this was essential listening back in the day? Here's a rundown of his Festive 50 from 40 years ago.

Some great tunes on there 👍🏻
Some of my top bands featured a lot
The Smiths , New Order and The Fall.
Where have those 40 years gone eh !

If you fancy a slightly different and very cool festive Playlist then fill ya boots.

If you have spotify of course.

I voted for no. 4.

Dandelion Radio still does this btw.

That paedo should he cancelled

Quite a bit of tuneless dross on there. Try my 1983 playlist for more mainstream stuff.

There are some real gems on there, especially near the end.

I remember it like it was 40 years ago

Yeah too much mainstream stuff on there for me,
Wham, Mike frigging Oldfield 😞, Culture Club

Yew Tree Blue

I know what you mean but that was what the year served up. I dug up a few classics and off beat stuff too though. Let me know anything I have missed that is half way decent.

Burning Down the House. Talking Heads
If you like that sort of thing 👍🏻

You mentioned Mike Old field - ten years earlier Tubular Bells was released, along with Raw Power by Iggy and the Stooges, that was a real contrast!

Yeah just a bit 😂

1981 was my favourite festive 50.
