PA Radio: Bill Direen, words and music

  • Dan Slevin,

    Nice to hear Bill sounding so well. I interviewed him once for Radio Active many, many moons ago, and he told me a couple of cool stories.

    One was that ih the 70s he was a late night DJ for Radio Windy under the name Bill Diamond and that he was fired for suggesting that Michael Fowler and Patricia Bartlett were going to copulate in public to raise money for The Michael Fowler Centre.

    The other story I remember was about The Bilders releasing a 7" single with a sealed plastic sleeve in the shape of a fish so to get the record out you had to gut it with a knife.

  • Joe Wylie,

    Anyone who can rhyme Mother Teresa of Calcutta with hot knife through butter is OK.
