BBC Radio 2 80's Choir Jingle

midd

Hi Guys. Does anyone have a 320kbp/s copy of a Jingle from Radio 2 from the mid-late 80's. It's a choir singing the station's name.... almost Christmas like, but it was aired throughout the year. Thanks in advance.

Barras

Only got a 192kbp/s copy...

Was this the awful frequency change jingle? If so, avoid!

Hi Midd you might just go to http://www.jingles.com/jam/radioids/demodl-HolidayJam.php?category=6 and click the 'Acapella'. You can hear it as often as you like!

Thanks for the reply folks. Any chance you could put up the 192 kbp/s version Barras?

I hope Bob that 'awful frequency change jingle' doesn't refer to the very clever upmarket
promo recorded by the King's Singers for the BBC in 1978 and actually released as a 45 single. I have to admit to owning an original copy and still marvel at the effort that went into it.

The King's Singers - so named as the original members went to King's College, Cambridge.

Thanks for the info. Chalks, never knew that about King`s College, Cambridge...

I know about the County Sound stuff but did they record jingles for other statons too ?

And...was it the King`s Singers or Mike Samme Singers who sang a package for Capital Radio ?

Believe it was the Swingle Singers that did the Capital bits...

Barras

Correct, it was the Swingle Singers, got that package at #28 on my list....

28 Metro Radio – (? Which jingle company) complete package 1980
