The arranged marriage worked a treat, even though Hirsty had to leave the JAM Morning Glory jingles back in &#39;Ull. A natural broadcaster, with true ...

Is there anyone quite like Rush Limbaugh in the UK? Had UK radio been founded differently, maybe there would be. His political commentary is thoroughly right wing.

Rush’s talk career began in 1984 at KFBK, moving to New York’s famous 77 WABC in 1984, from where he went national.

His show is now hailed as ‘the most-listened-to talk show’ with its 15 million US audience.

I love the way the chap in the picture clutches the tape spool like a new born baby.

Hear here the launch of the great Moray Firth Radio in Inverness in 1982, one of the early smaller stations. Whilst a small operation, it covered a huge geographic area.
