Hasn’t the radio world changed!
That was the theme of the conversation when Ian MacRae spoke to John Laws in an audio interview posted on radioinfo on July 10th.
While Laws’ career spanned some enormous changes in technology – he was around in the era of “wire recorders” – more significantly he’s seen changes to the style of management and vindicated many of the correspondents on the radioinfo forum when he said: “I think that they were much more interested in the actual sound of the radio station in the past – what went to air and how it did sound when it went to air. These days they’re more interested in the bottom line, I’m afraid”.
Now with the help of radio production guru Brian Newington, who found the rare pictures and did the production, radioinfo is proud to bring you this unique audiovisual perspective on John Laws’ over 50 years in radio.
