Springbok Radio - The Cliff Richard Show presented by Lowell Johnson - 1962

Featuring an interesting piece of Springbok Radio history, recorded 60 years ago !

I discovered a reel-to-reel tape recording of "The Cliff Richard Show" which was presented by Lowell Johnson during 1962.

The sound quality is not that great (recorded by my late father Arthur Deacon on a vintage Philips reel to reel tape recorder via a microphone at a distance from the family radio) but worth a listen for those interested.

The Cliff Richard Show" was sponsored by Wilson-Rowntree, the makers of "Rountrees Smarties".

Lowell Johnson introduced the program with the popular signature tune of the first few bars of "Shazam" by "The Shadows", continued with his smooth presentation for "the young ones" and included a familiar advertisement for "Rountrees Smarties".

The rest of the program included announcements and Cliff Richard updates by Lowell Johnson - some titles aired for approximately a minute and were faded for additional "Roundtrees Smarties" advertisements before fade-up until the end of the song.

The Music Selection :

1) Shazam - The Shadows (Intro)

2) I'm Walkin' - Cliff Richard

3) Shadoogie - The Shadows

4) Mean Woman Blues - Cliff Richard

5) All My Troubles - The Shadows

6) Little Things Mean A Lot - Cliff Richard

7) She's Not You - Elvis Presley

8) Shazam - The Shadows

Really pleased to have located this particular piece of Springbok Radio history from the early days of Cliff Richard and The Shadows, aired 60 years ago during the time that "Summer Holiday" was still being filmed !
