During the “60’s” I was in the US Navy and attached to the USS Robert E. Lee SSBN601 submarine. Many hours of upkeep was spent alongside a submarine tender anchored in the the Holy Loch. Scotland is a beautiful place and left me with many great memories of the cordial people and the wonderful town of Dunoon. I got to spend a few hours shopping for that perfect gift for the misses and then grabbing a pint or two before returning to the ship. The wife and I hope to return someday to visit. In the mean time, good luck on your new radio station. Do you plan to stream the audio in the future?

Let me know if I can help you in any way.

I am one of the submarine riders that used to visit the loch periodally when the US Navy was present. I was attached to the USS Robert E. Lee SSBN601 and enjoyed the transit to and from sea on the Clyde . The Scotish people were very cordial and Holy Loch was a lovely place to visit – even in inclement weather. Many hours were spent visiting the shops in Dunoon and then having a “dram or two” at a local Pub. The local Highland games were great and would like to see the events again. I want to congradulate the town for getting their own public radio outlet to allow the residents to express their opinion and show how much talent they have. The wife and I plan on visiting Dunoon in the near future. We look forward to seeing one of the greatest and most frendily towns along the banks of the river. Good luck on you future endevors.

FOR DUNOON MUM/ABOUT THE MUSIC
Just to let you know the latest BWO single “Lay Your Love On Me” heard on a radio near you is to be released next monday 28th July.
This was the second tune BWO had entered to represent Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest and the second time they were given the elbow
(seems Sweden are as bad as the UK for selecting tunes)
This is exactly what you want from BWO euro electro disco pop with up beat Abba and madonna mixed in, Burlesque, Guilty Pleasures and Lost Vagueness roll on a Silent Disco and we can call it Heaven

Thank you for telling us all about your BWO cd which by the way for £1 was certaintly a bargain.(you do realise you have just made public the best kept secret in Dunoon)
You were right about the Eurovision music vibe infact track 2 Temple of love was nearly the Swedish entry for Eurovision in 2006. The band themselves are Swedish thier full name “Bodies Without Organs” and say they are the missing link between Abba and Kraftwork, they are massive in Northern Europe and Russia. The band are just starting to get some radio play as you mentioned but thier music is very popular on the Lost Vagueness and Guilty Pleasures Disco scene that is becoming very popular on the fringe of music festivals (a lot of music played that no one admits to listening too) A follow up to Halcyon Days , Fabricator has been released and is more of the same and I can tell you now that DCR will broadcast a programme format that will more than satisfy all fans of this type of music and if your interested we are still looking for a presenter (what would the children think about that) Thanks again for sharing this with us-Victor at DCR

I recently bought this CD from a local charity shop for £1 it is called Halcyon Days by a group called BWO . I reconised track 15 Sunshine in the rain which I had heard on the radio.If you like the Eurovision Song Contest you will love this CD i’ts very 70s upbeat electro disco pop the type of music my children pretend they can’t hear but spend a lot of time jumping on their beds too.
I can’t tell you anything about BWO as the front sleeve was missing but the date on the back cover is 2006 and the label is Shell. A real bouncy feel good CD which I hope the like of Dunoon Radio will play.

Ref:- LETS TALK ABOUT THE MUSIC -I think I see where your going with this, what a good way of finding out about DCR listeners music taste and possibly some future radio programme and lively debate.
Put my name down for any future programme relating to this.
I look forward to reading of DCR listeners album choices.
I don’t think I have a “most” favourite album I do have some I think have something special and they are not just 60s r&b/soul.
