Terry, I just clicked on the link, and I'm apparently listening to the news - no wait, here's something. You're playing with Blue Oyster Cult!

Terry; the whole show is 2 hours long. So I thought I should just ask how far in do I need to go before I hear your band? If I know where your bit starts, I can download the show in the background, and then just skip ahead to the right time stamp.

dave..you can run the cursor along and it will pick it up, I was on early try about 20 mins in, you should hear some of 'Close to the Edge' and some soul then you can rewind or fast forward
Cheers

So, that's you talking while clips from Led Zep, Earth Wind & Fire, Chick Corea, Yes and some other tunes are playing in the background?

Yea, that's it; I just ran it back and heard your name. The timestamp is 27.00 for anyone else who wants to listen; you might want to go back a couple seconds before that to start. Listening to it again; this is very cool Terry!

Cheers Dave, I listen to the show every Sunday and went to the website and put my name forward, I think it was the diversity of what I have listened to in that decade. I was teens to 20's and wanted listen to everything, pop, rock, jazz, funk, soul(although I called it a day at C & W)
Also the fact that I was in band swung it as well.
It was fun to do and I must get it recorded before the show expires
