Back To Basics was first broadcast on June the 24th 2011.

I’ve had a lot of requests to feature this show again – it certainly has been one of my most listened to shows and whenever we have a wind-up gramophone in our little vintage shop, it is always a popular draw.

So, this was the show where we played 78s live in the studio. Just me, Laura and my trusty wind-up gramophone. This was one of the most enjoyable shows that we’ve broadcast. Old style DJ-ing and the only drawback being that we could not talk while playing the discs because they were all miked up live in the studio.

We make up for the in-between chat on all our other weeks though.

If you’d like a special tune played on any of our shows, just send an email to me, Dave Ireland, at david@stroudvintage.com and I’ll do my best to fit you in.
