R.I.P Annie....

She was huge part of my youth - I discovered a load of new music through her shows. Her Sunday afternoon show driving back with my parents from visiting relatives always turned up something amazing.

I'm off to listen to Brenda's Iron Sledge - I heard it there first https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In429UcuKaw

Nite Ms Nightingale thanks for setting up my music tastes.

Blimey, I’m too young to know she looked like this…

That's sad to hear. RiP Annie.

Her Sunday evening show circa late-1980s was always worth a listen.

Enjoyed her radio shows

I'll echo this - she and John Peel were the soundtrack to my youth...
