arrow In this category, anything goes - so long as it is quality, real music, we'll feature it.  
arrow What we have put together is a collection of artists or music types that, for whatever reason, we do not feel is getting the exposure or airplay that their talents deserve.
arrow We also feature here up and coming artists who have not had the chance they deserve to be heard.

Donald Fagen / Steely Dan
arrow blue DONALD FAGEN / STEELY DAN
USA

Category: Other Talent

Without doubt, Donald Fagen - half of Steely Dan - is a legend. But what he has achieved stands alongside the other great musicians of our time. His "Nightfly" album is an all time classic which deserves a place in any collection.

Hall and Oates
arrow blue DARYL HALL / HALL & OATES
USA

Category: Other Talent

Daryl Hall is another group member who has also produced some sensational music as a solo artist, yet fails to get the recognition he deserves. Hall and Oates also risk being overlooked in favour of poor cover versions these days - tragic!

Leo Sayer
arrow blue LEO SAYER
Great Britain

Category: Other Talent

Leo Sayer deserves great credit for the superb singer that he is.  Few British stars have have the talent and have had Leo's success, and anyone unfamiliar with the range of his music really should take a listen

Theatre Organ
arrow blue THEATRE ORGAN
Great Britain

Category: Other Talent

The theatre (or Cinema) organ is one of the most difficult instruments to master, and we have a fine heritage of talented organists in the UK.  This genre of music really deserves a much wider audience.

The legends - those who have made a real contribution to good music
Sir Alan Keith
arrow blue SIR ALAN KEITH
Great Britain

Broadcaster

Sir Alan presented "Your Hundred Best Tunes" on Radio 2 with style and panache for 44 years, broadcasting well into his nineties. In doing so, he did so much for the cause of great music. Sunday nights have never been the same since.

Bill Rennells
arrow blue BILL RENNELLS
Great Britain

Broadcaster and producer

Bill is one of the stalwarts of radio, and a familiar voice on both local and national radio. As well as presenting his own shows, listeners will recall him as the presenter of shows featuring the BBC Radio Orchestra, in particular String Sound.

Chris Stuart
arrow blue CHRIS STUART
Great Britain

Broadcaster and pianist

Chris was one of BBC Radio 2's most talented and popular presenters yet for no good reason he was dropped by the station. What a loss to radio! Very few have Chris's level of charm, professionalism and talent.

Desmond Carrington
arrow blue DESMOND CARRINGTON
Great Britain

Broadcaster and actor

Desmond represents everything a good broadcaster should be: charming, knowledgeable, entertaining and professional. We still cannot fathom why the BBC moved his Radio 2 show from a Sunday, after so many years of fabulous broadcasts.

Nigel Ogden

Broadcaster and organist

Nigel is a fantastic organist, who has furthered the cause of the cinema/theatre organ genre for decades with his legendary show, The Organist Entertains, which continues weekly on BBC Radio 2.

Paul James
arrow blue PAUL JAMES
Great Britain

Broadcaster, comedian and all round entertainer

Paul James is a hidden gem of local radio, which the lucky residents of Kent enjoy a couple of times a week. With internet radio the rest of us can too, his charm, wit and knowledge of good music are a delight to all who have the privilege to hear him.

Ray Moore
arrow blue RAY MOORE
Great Britain

Broadcaster and pianist

Mornings have never been the same without Ray Moore. His early show on Radio 2 had a huge following, Ray being one of the funniest, yet most professional, broadcasters of all time.

Bill Rennells - BBC Radio Kent
arrow blue BILL RENNELLS

BBC Radio Kent, Melody Night, Sunday nights

Bill has been broadcasting for years, and has one of the best voices on radio. For many years one of the regulars on BBC Radio 2, Bill now presents "Melody Night" each Sunday night on Kent. Smashing! 
Pat Marsh - BBC Radio Kent
arrow blue PAT MARSH
England

BBC Radio Kent, weekday mornings

Pat is a fantastic broadcaster, presenting the most enjoyable mid-morning slot on radio. Local radio seems to be where today's real talent lies, we only wish national radio was as good these days.
Nigel Ogden - BBC Radio 2

Great Britain

BBC Radio 2, Organist Entertains, Tuesday at 10pm

Nigel's "Organist Entertains" show is really worth a listen, whether you are an enthusiast of the genre or not. This is fantastic music that has so much to offer a whole new generation of listeners!
Paul James - BBC Radio Kent
arrow blue PAUL JAMES
England

BBC Radio Kent, Sunday Requests, Sunday lunchtime

Paul James broadcasts a Sunday request show that always produces good music, and his easy manner and entertaining way provide for perfect entertainment.  Ideal Sunday listening.

BBC Radio 2 appreciation website

This site is a great tribute to BBC Radio 2, offering a wealth of information about the station. We fully support the efforts of the Society in trying to retain some of the things about Radio 2 that so many of us cherish, but are gradually being eroded.
