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.

and we are the dreamers of dreams"

BIG BEAR MUSIC
Real Music, Properly Played
Big Bear Records, probably the longest established independent record company in the UK, have been at the forefront of Jazz, Swing and Blues since 1968.
The company was named Big Bear by legendary radio producer John Peel who thought the gait of the label's founder, Jim Simpson, resembled that of a bear. The label grew out of Simpson's productioncompany which has steered Black Sabbath through their first three years and the best 3 albums of their career.
Initially recording U.S. Bluesmen, the labels repertoire quickly expanded first to include such significant West Midlands bands as Muscles, The Quads, Garbo's Celluloid Heroes, The Gangsters and Mel Gaynor's Zulu.
From 1985, Big Bear Records began to establish its reputation as the home of great jazz, blues and swing with King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys, Kenny Baker's Dozen, Clark Terry Big Bird Band, Bruce Adams / Alan Barnes Quintet, Lady Sings The Blues, Alan Barnes All-Stars and many more.
And there's more to come, with new talents Tipitina and The Doctor Teeth Big Band, both out on the road promoting their hot new CDs on Big Bear. Thanks to Steve Kelly at BB Music for his help.............
Another new found friend from the North-West-Blues circle, Cheers to Les Pilling............
