Marie Osmond is deze week de hoogste
nieuwe binnenkoomster met Paper Roses op nummer 25. Op 28 verwelkomen we de
rest van de Osmonds met Oneway ticket to anywhere. Colin Blunstone komt met
het mooie Wonderful binnen op nummer 38. Op 42 zien we Super Trouper van Deep
Purple voor het eerst in de Top 50. De Rolling Stones en Gerard Cox wisselen
van plaats in de Top van deze lijst en daarmee staat Gerard nu op 1 met zijn
bericht dat de zomer nu toch echt voorbij is. Het mooie Harmony van Ray
Conniff schittert deze week als Treiterschijf. Op 12 in de Troef 20 staat
D’yer Mak’er van Led Zeppelin, een dijk van een plaat en die werd ook eind
1974 op vrijdagavond nog steevast gedraaid in Discotheek Nolleke Prop in
Wageningen. Een Nederlandse zangeres, die pas later zeer bekend zou worden,
hoor je op nummer 5 in de Troef 20. Deze
Top 50 kun je hier beluisteren: Als
toegift deze week de Onder
de TOP 50 kun je de herinneringen van Michael Downing lezen aan RNI in
November 1973 en daaronder een paar scans uit de Poptelescoop van 10 November
1973. |

The RNI memories of Michael Downing for this week in November 1973 Saturday 10 November
1973 The records that
I have heard most on RNI over the past week, apart from the Treiterschijf and the Smash Play, have been:
There is a tender
today, which takes off Rob Eden and Don Allen and brings back Brian McKenzie
and Graham Gill. Complete programmes are today: 6.00 Dick de Graaf 8.00 Hans Molenaar
(Buitengaats) 10.00 Sport Show 12.00 Ferry Maat
(Super Top 50) 15.00 Ted Bouwens (Gouwe
Ouwe) 17.00 Leo van der Goot (Driemaster) 20.00 Robin Banks 22.00 Don Allen (Country'n'Western
Jamboree) 24.00 Graham Gill 2.00 Robin Banks 4.00 - 7.00 Brian McKenzie The International
service Smash Play comes on board the Mebo 2, but
the new Treiterschijf by Ray Coniff
doesn't. The 49 metre shortwave transmitter is off
the air due to bad weather and water in the antenna. Sunday 11 November 1973 The second hour
of Driemaster today features LP tracks. There is no
tape for the Hitback Show recorded by Mike Ross
today, so programmes are: 20.00 Brian McKenzie (Hitback
Show) 22.00 Graham Gill (Request Show) 24.00 Robin Banks 2.00 Rob Eden (Contemporary Music) 4.00 - 6.00 Skyline From now on RNI
is to broadcast 24 hours a day. There is no hitback competition today. The sea is very rough today.
Tony Berk appears at a mobile discotheque. Monday 12 November 1973 Heavy seas again
today, so for most of the day RNI is on low power, resulting in poor
reception. However, after a two minute break at 22.30 the station returns to
full power and reception improves dramatically. Leo van der Goot has an interview with
Colin Blunstone on Driemaster
and the Dutch service introduces a new advert for the K-Tel LP "20 Hits
of the 60s". International service programmes
are: 20.00 Robin Banks 22.00 Brian McKenzie 1.00 Graham Gill 4.00 - 6.00 Skyline Tuesday 13 November 1973 No tender today,
so the programme schedule is the same as yesterday
(except that Buitengaats lasts two hours and there
is no 65 Min). Wednesday 14 November
1973 Ted Bouwens interviews Charlotte Liess
on his programme. Despite calmer seas there is
still no tender today. Thursday 15 November
1973 The weather has
taken a turn for the worse again today and there is a Force 8 gale, although
this is forecast to reduce to Force 7. Robin Banks says that, as far as he
knows, RNI will not be closing at the end of 1973, thereby backing up Rob
Eden, and Brian McKenzie says the same later in the
evening. A tender did try
to get out to the Mebo 2 today, but, due to the
rough weather, it was not able to get alongside the radioship. Friday 16 November 1973 Due to the
persisting bad weather the tender was not able to get close enough to the Mebo 2 to change DJs, but some letters do arrive on
board. Tonight's programmes are: 20.00 Graham Gill (International Top 30) 22.00 Brian McKenzie (Rock'n'roll
Special) 24.00 Robin Banks 2.00 Graham Gill 4.00 - 6.00 Brian McKenzie The Top 30 show
is somewhat of a shambles this evening. All the positions up to number 18 are
given wrongly, due to an printer's error, but they
are corrected in the run down at the end of the show. This evening's Buitengaats is not run along the lines that Hans Molenaar indicated last week, in that it does not only
include records by British groups of the 1960s, but it does include the usual
3 Beatles records and also 3 Rolling Stones records in a row, plus others by
the Rolling Stones later in the programme. Again
the new International service Smash Play - "Street life" by Roxy
Music - has not yet arrived on board the Mebo 2. The new records
which I heard for the first time on RNI during the week commencing 10
November 1973 were:
