New Passion Radio Bristol site up and running...

This is a bit better > Passion Radio Bristol

They've got a listen again feature ready to roll soon, so no need for me to post any more shows here I guess.  I'll still do some from time to time though.

A lot of my files have perished in the Rapidshare account now, so you'll find a lot of the early links no longer work.  Sorry about this, if there is anything specific you want uploaded again, please email :)  Remember, there are permanent files at The Pirate Archive

Thornbury FM

Not pirate, not in Bristol, but worth a mention. They've been going since Nov 2005 on RSLs. It's typical small town RSL stuff really, but the DJs aren't too unprofessional and there is an interesting selection of shows. This year, they've increased their reach to a bit more of South Gloucestershire and some parts of North Bristol. There are even ads for Flingers in Patchway! Here's an hour long clip...

KWBB, BBC, Isherman, appeal for information.

KWBB - Knowle West Bad Boys - I'm told that Tricky and 3D ran this station from Knowle West, and it was smashed up by a crew from Bedminster. From there it was set up in Barton Hill and John Nation was possibly involved. Any information appreciated, especially recorded evidence of the station.

BBC - Bedminster Badboys Company - These were apparently the guys that smashed up the KWBB studio. They were also behind the Twisted free parties. The station was on air at the same time as those parties, so around 1992, and was the way to find out about them. Once again, any more information appreciated, especially recordings.

Isherman (spelling?) - I've been told this pirate is / was on air in Easton, probably on low power, about 1 to 4 watts I guess. I've seen the guy that told me about it a couple of times and his story hasn't changed, so it's possible it really does exist.

Weston Sound - This was in W-S-M and was run as a holiday station from a caravan site, any more info and recordings would be welcomed.

When you've been hunting down information for things and a few times you find out that you've been spun a little lie, you tend to get a bit more cynical about what you believe, so apologies if I seem like I don't believe you when you tell me information ;) I just have to take things with a pinch of salt.

TAPES - Still looking for tapes here, especially of the earlier pirates such as BAD, FTP, Emergency, RAW 104.9, SYT, Radio 103.5, etc...

News - 061109

Last night, I managed to get the rest of my tapes from my parents loft and there was actually 3 times the amount I was expecting! Not all of them contain radio recordings, of course, some are pre-recorded or albums / tunes, but that still leaves about half of what I got to go through and retrieve radio from. Amongst the tapes were recordings I thought I'd lost by recording over them stupidly, or never even knew I had. These include half a D90 of Garage FM from Cardiff and almost 2 whole tapes of Storm FM from 2001. I've just found what appears to be another Sub Love set from Tristan B's show on Galaxy (1992) too, so lots of surprises waiting to be discovered in this bin liner full of tapes I reckon :)
