This recording features weekend shows on Cork pirate Radio City in summer 1981. Up first is John Ashford (RIP) with the final part of his Saturday Nightbeat show. He is followed by Jamie Roberts, who takes a call from fellow DJ Pat O’Rourke who is in hospital! Of interest is the advert for Fianna Fáil in advance of the election the following week. The final section is part of a chart show.
The tape begins at around 2200 on Saturday 6th June 1981 but is partially airchecked. The chart show is probably from the following day, 7th June. Thanks to Lilian O’Donoghue for the donation.
