Radio silent. 50 is Clay's. The report. Is closed between. Most of the. Sides of the. Hill coming from. The end. Name to new things good afternoon B.B.C. Radio sound of the afternoon Wallace sound I got a book a spangles glam gate waves and tubes This is Gary James Good afternoon GARY Hi Alex how are you oh I feel bad I forgot all about you I remember you on the tube and then you dropped off my radar and I've thought about it he said it's about 1980 why every was well you know the title of that book when I was well when you finish writing an autobiography rejects vice isn't something everybody does every day I thought that finding a title for is going to be really hard but I thought I could call it I'm the one nobody remembers. Which is largely true but then I thought now accolade I can let the fi flick through the book the small inning and the 1st thing I was looking at the pictures then I see a picture of you in 1962 you know I thought you know and I thought you were younger than me and I was born in 1962 and then I saw your 1st birthday 1959 said The 1st thing is you look incredibly young Still I do your son we're at it. And you know what the secret is it's moisturise Is that what it is yeah you got to walk it on moisturiser as much as you can cram on every night. You know and I think a lot of it's in your head be always watching Robert Smith on Glastonbury this year doing that wonderful performance of the cue and then I heard an interview with toy of the Avatar you know and Toyah 61 she's a same age as me Robert Smith is 60 you know I mean these are amazing people and yet you know so we're all still here you know we're not puttering around on. Centers and we're not all selling few not and I'm 57 and what I love about our generation right is the fact that when you and I were young my my father's granddad had food in 2 world wars said by the time he came out of the war and went back to the building tried his body was absolutely shot so by the time he was in his late fifty's he was a very very old man and who wouldn't be. And now when you look at Roger Daltry on stage or even Paul McCartney at $77.00 they look great they you know they're reaching Well they're looking after them we know so much more now about keeping the body in trim so it's easy really now to say the 70 is the new 50 Yeah I think so I mean look again look at ring go start you know talk about ring our stars you know in the book I interviewed him way back in the day I saw a picture of him the other day he is unbelievable he looks exactly the same as he did when I interviewed him in 1903 when you were interviewing him in 1900 I bet he was drinking too much about it wasn't looking after himself like he is now and what does he $8081.00 something on that ring go a lot of peas gonna be. I don't know but the other thing is with these guys if you look at ring go he's got a great look he keeps his hair short because there's not that much of it he keeps his bid in trim and obviously dies that automates but you always weighs really nice expensive T. Shirts jeans not converse on a suit jacket so he's got a look that he knows suits him and I think that's half the battle Yeah I agree I mean you know Paul McCartney looks pretty good trees are ages ago so you know how you know I think yeah I think I've worn reasonably well considering Well the book obviously is an interesting read I do wonder who's going to buy a mount glad you've done it. Well thank you very much no I'm glad you're done and we're going to talk about spangles glam guy you waves and tubes in a month but. When you did your book and I can understand why people want to write the waterboard graffiti did you think trouble is who's going to buy it because I am a no not on national T.V. Anymore yeah and I was under no illusions that nobody's going to read or very few people would have remembered me from even the 2 you know I did for 2 and a half years of the 1st series but people will remember Paula there were members Jules a member Muriel So that's they're the people that are well known not me but I wrote this book frankly I dedicated it to a guy called Phil Cox I decided to write this book after 2 things happened Firstly I went to see the film Pride which told to stop a forgotten story of lesbians and gay support the miners group back in the early eighty's. And I was so moved by that because the music everything about that era I felt this is my story this is this is so personal to me. And Phil Cox and I had started the world's 1st ever guy writing program in London on pirate radio because there was no Internet was not no other way of doing it so we didn't necessarily want to break the law by doing it on part right if there wasn't any alternative and I thought to myself then Phil story is lost to history nobody knows about it and the 2nd catalyst for me writing this book was when the British Library contacted me because they had a complete sound archive of all of these programs that was given to them when Phil passed away in 1992 a couple when I tell you I want to do what I wanted to before we get into that because this is you know this is I don't make notes but I had written down here that I want to talk to you about gay waves in 1980 and a couple of other things I also want to talk to you about what's out there is a queer about so should we play some glam now might come back and do that so you could do Bowie you could do my bowling. You could do whatever you like what you want to play what you want to hear he's got it it's got to be some ball and I think for me get it on his. This is my favorite Baldwin track of the time and. Fabulous Please list. Soon. To. And that's when he put the glitter on the cheeks he went on Top Of The Pops with Elton John supposedly playing the piano and was born did you. Even you must have been too young to bump into Marc Bolan. Would have been my greatest dream I think the closest I ever got was trying to persuade my mother to allow us to go to a T. Rex concert in Brighton when I was only 13 my friends and I decided that we were going to go down there and do it but unfortunately the wretched woman kept pestering me saying how were you going to get back because I lived in temperature. And we'd catch to plan to sleep under the pier so of course my parents when they found that out my mother banned me from going I mean how how how unfair Can you get what parent wouldn't. Do But actually what she ended up doing was you know maybe stating one of your most precious memories from me I still think about it I mean I ventured no I never got to meet Mark I mean it's one of the great regrets of my life I would love to die but I did get to meet and interview Micky Finn he was my partner in T. Rex at the time yeah yeah and I remember Mickey's to play the percussion and yeah right let's talk about Phil then tell us a. Film why he's so important he was so important Yeah he's important he was a he was a difficult character but he was important because he was a pioneer he did so many things for the 1st time he started the 1st gay teen age group in London you know and this is a time when teenagers as gay teenagers we were illegal because although the age of consent was 21 what did that do for us we you know you could go all the way up to age 21 On Being aware teenager but have no outlet you'd be illegal so Phil was a pioneer there and as I say the the radio program was a passionate thing of his no Internet no other way of getting this out and we developed a program which became gay waves and it was broadcast for a relatively short period of time in early 1990 S. . What part of station was it on it was on it was put out by an organization called our radio who did not just things for us but for some minority . Ethnic writers stations as well so it fulfilled really a thing and I say this with the greatest of respect to the B.B.C. But it was referring a gap in the market which you know really needed to be provided absolutely listen I saw Rod Stewart recently and he did the killing the Georgie and he said you know when I wrote this song the B.B.C. Ban it can you imagine that a song about. A gay guy in New York who's murdered by a street gang a Rob makes this tragic tell a very pretty song of course but the B.B.C. Penticton through someone singing about some one guy we've had a not playing and that was only 4 years before you'll get a waves radio show yeah exactly and if they were just radically different times Alex you know I mean it just completely different time and. I don't want I'm not sort of person that will go on and I hope the book doesn't put this across because that's not how right now. I wrote it I wanted it to present a more positive side you know remember the good things the laughter the fun we had throughout some really really difficult times and that archive guy waves is a treasure that I hope one day someone will make a documentary about because it shouldn't be languishing and in the depths of the British Library people should know about it has a good T.V. Think it's withstood the test of time very well though Gary because if we go back to 1900 we still had John Inman being Mr Humphreys on Are You Being Served. And life was very OK you were light years ahead of what anyone in the media really . But how have the programs who stood the test of time or even did they sound like they're from another era do you know that's the most fascinating thing is that they are ometer programs you know they were put together in Phil's flat using We were splicing type we were doing the it was old school and it was broadcast from an aerial hidden in the washing line of fields flat on the 13th floor of a tower block in the city of London to join hide it from the detector vans which were wandering around trying to catch us and them they have curiously stood the test of Tommy for when I listen to some of the lighter ones I'm astonished at the production level on it considering they weren't done in studios you know I mean this was all I meant to stuff but the vox pops the interviews sometimes there would dedicated performances of of music works which were done specifically for this program it's an amazing archive was Kerry and here's the big question we can all make great radio programs as there's thousands of people making fabulous stuff on the Internet now which is either a radio program or a radio show apocalypse or whatever but was anybody listening to it did you did you know many people who were listening to it I don't genuinely do not know the answer to that question because we had no way of finding out but the only thing I can tell you is that we did get my email so. I'm assuming that for the people that did manage to catch us and it was a somewhat haphazard broadcasting it wasn't like putting something in the Radio Times we did have a set day of the week we did have a set time but it was all on a knife edge because if the if you know if the authorities had turned up stolen the equipment taken the equipment from us I should say then the program didn't go out but I believe there was an audience how many weeks on I could never say Well we wish you the best of the book tell me about spangles quickly before we go because it's called spangles glam what we cover gay ways we've covered glam we've not really touched on the chip What's the spangles spangles simpler is it refers to the sweets spangles because of course in the sixty's as a child we had flying saucers we had sherbet dabs we had fun shrimps you know all these things that I remember from sweet shops as a young child and spangles was the name of a fruit drop in a Chub which we used to buy show I don't know I like the color ones ago because I never got the old Irish out of the UK I thought the old the old English I never knew anyone like those but the Kona bottles Wow No and I never lie on ever
