The RNI memories
of Michael Downing for March 1973 In mid-March 1973 RNI had two DJ changes.
On the Dutch service, Alfred Lagarde left and was
replaced on Driemaster by Dick de Graaf. This meant that the weekday programme
schedule was now: 6.00 Buitengaats
(live from the Mebo 2 with either Gerard Smit or Marc van Amstel) 9.00 Branding 10.00 Peter Holland 12.00 Tony Berk 14.00 Ferry Maat 16.00 Driemaster
(live from the Mebo 2 with either Leo van der Goot or Dick de Graaf) 18.00 - 20.00 Nico
Steenbergen On the International service, Graham Gill
joined, having been with Radio Caroline for a few weeks. Graham joined a team
that consisted of Brian McKenzie, Don Allen, Mike Ross, Arnold Layne and Ian
Anderson. Graham replaced Steve King, who had only had one tour of duty on
the Mebo 2 and had suffered from seasickness. The International service Top 30,
presented by Mike Ross on Friday 23 March 1973, had "20th Century
Boy" by T Rex at no. 1 and five records which climbed into the Top 10,
by the Detroit Emeralds at no. 4, White Plains at no. 5, Dawn at no. 6, Miki
Anthony at no. 7 and Roxy Music at no. 8. All of these were UK Top 30 hits,
but there were a lot of records lower down the chart which were not UK hits,
including Deep Purple, Earth and Fire, Georgie Fame
and Alan Price, Clarence Carter, Edward Bear, Vicki Lawrence, Sutherland
Brothers and Quiver, Melanie and 10CC. So the music on RNI's International
service remained a mix of UK hits and non-hits in March 1973 and the station
as a whole was in good form. In the period January to March 1973 there
had been three radio stations broadcasting from the North Sea, but Radio
Caroline suffered a breakdown at about 7.30 on Monday 26 March 1973 and did
not return to the air, which left Radio Veronica and RNI as the only stations
broadcasting for the rest of the week. |
