Robbie Owen is a former "pirate radio" Dj and a veteran of broadcasting in Northamptonshire. He developed "T

he Jukebox Drive-In" whilst there and has since taken the programme around England. The programme turns the musical clock back to the sixties and builds on the "British Beat" era - the classical line-up of three guitars and drums. So expect to hear lots of "Beatle-esque" tunes both old and new! The first hour includes "Record Collector's Corner" which looks at reissues on CD, collectable vinyl, gigs in the area, competitions and a weekly "Doo-Wop" song. Then in the next hour "This Week on Top of the Pops" celebrates the huge influence of TV on our record purchases, followed by Extended Play (a remix or an "epic" song, or just an long song!). Then the "Life of a Song" examines the origins and recordings of some of our most enduring popular songs. In the final hour it may be non-stop oldies, an interview, looking back to the charts of 50 or 60 years ago, a special feature, or "The Knitting" where YOU choose all the songs. The programme comes from Robbie's own studio, called the "Magic Echo" and is surrounded by records, both CD and vinyl...and yes, the Magic Echo has a pair of turntables!
