What a delightful composite of Radio 2 output,(now some 33 years later) including 3 giants of BBC radio Baker,Dell & Carrington; interestingly the latter reminding the listener of the importance of 'Live Orchestral' music e.g the NDO; Now largely non existent. My personal favourites- Alan Dell's prog.'Sounds Easy' and 'Sing Something Simple',with its over 10million fans. Also take note- problems in Nigeria and on the 5yr old M25 don't appear much changed today! Radio 2 is now a 'NO GO' wavelength for me and millions of 'older' listeners' Sad,very Sad!

The rot of Radio 1 of 1993 has arrived in 2022 for Radio 2. Melodies for you and Family Favourites were the staple of quality for Sundays
Radio 2 used to be an amazing station and I had it on most of the day.
Sadly, it's terrible these days, and I haven't listened for years.
Snap its been destroyed from inside
I despair at Radio Two 30 years later.
agree
It was a Oasis in a world of stupidity. What have we got now .WOKE rubbish .
Destroyed from inside tge whole day is awful
The variety of programmes and perhaps even more the ability of each of these presenters is quite amazing when compared to today.
The king singers always takes me back to driving home from visiting my parents and siblings, sadly all long since dead.19:30

As a 16 year old listening to radio 2 in 1989 I couldn’t stand it! Now I wish I could go back to it😪
Thank you for this snapshot of Radio 2 broadcasting and broadcasters from nearly 32 years ago.
Quality JAMS jingles as well.
Brilliant, brings back lots of happy memories, what has happened to todays radio 2, thank you for posting.
Loving these recordings. Radio 2 has had a lot to offer on Sundays! Thanks for sharing!
What a varied selection of music with gifted presenters from days gone by.thanks for that.gerry
Interesting snapshot of what Radio 2 had to offer on a typical Sunday back in 1990. Still with elements of the Light Programme.
The music and presenters (and shows) were better than than now!
It's just nuts how this was 1990 and we are 2022 now it's just insane 📻🏈🎧
Loving this!!! 🌟You are a STAAAAR 🎉🥂🙌
This bears no resemblance to Radio 2 nowadays. I did know Graham Knight and his wife, but not through the radio.
Glory days before WOKE ruined it . Well done the trendies. Ruined it for the rest of us .
