Commercial Radio in the UK started on 8th October 1973 with the launch of LBC Radio ‘London’ and it was followed a week later by Capital Radio ‘London’ on 16th October 1973. Then it was the turn of Radio Clyde, BRMB, Piccadilly 261, Metro Radio, Swansea Sound, Radio Hallam and Radio City to launch.
Other radio stations that launched in the 70s include Radio Orwell, Radio 210, Beacon 303 and Radio Forth.
Radio stations in the 70s had jingles from companies including Alfasound Tapetrix, Emison, PAMS Productions and Yamco for their jingles. Below are some great examples of 70s jingle packages.
IMPORTANT – Please check back as more packages will be added as Radio Jingles Online will be celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Commercial Radio for the next 20 days (ending 27th October)
