In 2002 a young man knocked at my door and asked me if I would like to present a rock show on a local radio station he was putting together. He told me he wanted a diverse array of musical genres, and asked me if I would present a retro rock show, having remembered me as ‘the rock guru’ for waxing lyrical about the great bands from the 1960’s & 1970’s. |

He even had a name for the show ‘The Rock of Ages Show’ which is now known as “The Rock of Ages Radio Show”. I remember pre-recording the first shows at home, converting vinyl onto mini disc. It was a painful labour of love, as I was suffering from a DVT, fractured hip and ankle at the time, and trying to wash albums at the kitchen sink to remove crackle & static whilst balancing on crutches proved to be quite a challenge. “The Rock of Ages Radio Show” is my dedication to great musicians past and present who also went through a ‘pain barrier’ of rejection and indifference to deliver ‘ground breaking’ musical triumphs which continue to reverberate to this day, they are the catalysts for others who have followed in their footsteps.
