Slade schreeuwt een
ieder een blije kerst toe vanaf de bodem van de Top 50. When I fall in love
van Donny Osmond is deze week de hoogst binnengekomen plaat. Op 43 zien we
Jan van Veen in de Top 50 verschijnen met Meer. Een nummer dat we ook nog
kennen in de speciale RNI uitvoering. De Three Degrees komen voorzichtig
binnen op nummer 43 met hun Dirty Ol’ Man, een Tipper voor de Top. De mooie
meisjes uit Arcadia moeten plaatsmaken voor Gerard Cox, die ons vanaf de Top
van de hitlijst toezingt dat de zomer nu toch wel echt voorbij is. Een nogal
onbekende plaat is deze week treiterschijf, Peace will be mine van John. D.
Bryant. Verder redelijk wat soul muziek in de Troef 20 (6 stuks). De mooiste
Troefplaat voor mij persoonlijk staat op nummer 3 en is de kanskaart van Tony
Berk : There, I’ve said it again van Bobby Vinton. Een nummer dat stamt uit
1964. Deze Top 50 kun je hier beluisteren: En als extraatje de Onder de TOP 50 kun je de herinneringen van Michael
Downing lezen uit de tijd dat deze Top 50 werd uitgezonden en daaronder een
paar scans uit de Muziek Expres van December 1973. |

The RNI memories
of Michael Downing for this period Saturday 15 December 1973 The
records that I have heard most on RNI over the week to 14 December 1973 have
been:
The tapes for the Dutch service have not
arrived on board the Mebo 2, so the Dutch service
today runs as follows: 6.00 Brian McKenzie 8.00 Hans Molenaar 11.00 - 15.00 Gerard Smit
(including the Top 50 from 12.00 to 15.00) By 15.00 the tapes had arrived on the
tender, so from 15.00 the programmes returned to
normal. Despite several calls over the air for Robin Banks to come to Scheveningen
harbour as the tender will be leaving before 18.00
Central European Time, there is no change in the DJs on board today.
International service programmes this evening are: 20.00 Mike Ross 22.00 Don Allen (Country'n'Western
Jamboree) 24.00 Brian McKenzie 2.00 Mike Ross 4.00 - 7.00 Don Allen The Country'n'Western
Jamboree is the Christmas edition, which was meant to be broadcast next week,
but has been brought forward to today due to a change in the Christmas programme schedule. The programme,
which is recorded despite Don Allen being on board at the moment, features
Christmas songs in country'n'western style. There
are promotions for the Christmas programmes
broadcast today, including the Top 100 of 1973, the Rock'n'Roll
Special and the Country'n'Western Jamboree. There is very heavy interference on
medium wave from Lille today. A mobile disco today features Tony Berk. Sunday 16 December 1973 Tonight's International service programmes are: 20.00 Mike Ross (Hitback
Show) 22.00 Graham Gill (Request Show) 24.00 Don Allen 2.00 - 4.00 Rob Eden (Contemporary Music) The Hitback
Show this evening features records by Gene Pitney, the Shadows, the Searchers,
the Everly Brothers, Dave Dee Dozy Beaky Mick &
Tich and the Mamas & Papas. Don Allen is the
newsreader during the recorded Request Show. Monday 17 December 1973 The weather on the North Sea continues to
be bad. This evening's 65 Min programme is
recorded, although Hans Molenaar is on board the Mebo 2 at present. The International programme
schedule this evening is: 20.00 Mike Ross 22.00 Brian McKenzie 1.00 Don Allen 4.00 - 6.00 Skyline Tuesday 18 December 1973 Ted Bouwens has
two interviews on his programme this morning - one
with a member of the Cocktail Trio and the other with the new group Double
Couple. Ferry Maat has a special on the O'Jays for 25 minutes at 15.10 in his programme,
the reason being that they are appearing in concert in Amsterdam this
evening, along with Billy Paul and the Intruders. There is a tender today and it takes off
Gerard Smit, Hans Molenaar,
Brian McKenzie and Don Allen and brings back Robin Banks, Marc van Amstel and Hans ten Hooge. Marc
van Amstel presents Buitengaats
and Dutch news is read by Gerard Smit, Hans Molenaar, Marc van Amstel and
Hans ten Hooge. International service programmes are: 20.00 Mike Ross 22.00 Robin Banks 1.00 Don Allen 4.00 - 6.00 Skyline The Don Allen programme
is recorded. Interference from Lille on medium wave continues to be very
heavy. Wednesday 19 December 1973 The Dutch service now finishes at exactly
20.00, with the final news broadcast at 19.57. Thursday 20 December 1973 Still very heavy interference from Lille.
The Christmas programme schedule has still not been
announced, although it is due to start tomorrow. Friday 21 December 1973 Mike Ross goes off on the tender and Rob
Eden, Graham Gill and A J Beirens return to the Mebo 2. Tonight sees the start of the International service
special Christmas programme schedule, which is
tonight: 2.00 Rob Eden (Top 100 of 1973) 21.30 Robin Banks (Top 100 of 1973) 23.00 Brian McKenzie (Songs of Love and
Hate) 24.00 Graham Gill (Mixed Gill) 2.00 Rob Eden 4.00 - 6.00 Skyline This evening's portion of the Top 100 was
supposed to include 50 records, but only 45 were played. The "Songs of
Love and Hate" programme features records by
people like Leonard Cohen and Dion. There is a dramatic improvement in medium
wave reception at 21.45. Then the new records played on RNI for
the first time in the period 15 to 21 December 1973. There were quite a lot
this week, including a few reissues:
