Try Absolute Radio with its 'no repeat guarantee' between 9 and 5.

Neil

Couple of years ago when my car only had AM I could only get Absolute. That pretty much ensured that the afternoon commute repeated most of what was in the morning commute.
I used to work with a guy who was at that fateful electrocution concert.

LOL!

Its a funny thing but although a sucker for most radio comedy (except Hancock - I don't know why) I cannot stand either waking up to talking or listening to talking in the car so Classic FM is the choice. However my brain seems to self protect and after a few hearings the Ads, while annoying to listen to at first, seem to me to become blanked out after a few listens - Sensory mediation I believe it is called.

Playlists predate Rock'n'Roll. I know Planet Rock holds monthly meetings to draw up its playlists, but also allows its DJs 'freeplays' as well as listener requests - although only the Hairy Bikers actually highlight these!

Neil

The problem with Planet Rock, is the playlists are drawn from a very small barrel of tracks, which never seems to change........if you listen to it for 6 months it’s just an endless repeat of the same records, drawn from a very shallow gene pool that hasn’t changed in years.......For example, how many times a week do they play Hocus Pocus, by Focus smile p, great track once every couple of years, but six times a week becomes seriously tedious 😩
