I'm a BBC 6Music man normally, although a few of the weekend shows are quite chewy. In the evening (Monday to Wednesday) I listen to Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie on BBC Radio 2. Both 6Music and Radcliffe and Maconie offer a mixture of great songs and some new stuff. It costs me a lot of money keeping up on iTunes!
The other weekend I had to do some ironing, so I stuck on the radio but wasn't in the mood for 6Music's weekend fayre, so surfed the dial, as it were. I found Absolute 80s - superb!
Ok, so you have to put up with Bananarama or REO Speedwagon, but John Farnham and Fiction Factory make it all worthwhile. For people of a certain age there's little better, and I am most certainly of that age. Escapism rules!

You won't regret it.
