Alasdair - I have a couple of tapes here that you may well have seen "on the shelves" back then (or even indeed dubbed personally...)

Drop me a line and I can arrange a 21st century dub for you. :)

a bit like these tapes Iain?

I'm just a little bit puzzled that these audio files are appearing from lots of DIFFERENT people's S/c submissions, often out to the web in general, including those done by Spoons!

Kier, its also easier to simply link to the Thread that these are already posted in - "similar threads" unfortunately are not mergeable to save space - hope this is of some help to you! :)

What is there to be puzzled about?

I see no reason why Kier should not post them here, it makes it easier for all concerned rather than visiting threads that are long dead.

(Our "celebrity" has made an appearance LOL). :-))

Golly what a LOT of our old Trent/GEM jingles....

An amazing tribute to the creativity of (the late) Alan Fawkes, and Steve England.

By the time we did Trent 7 and 8, were were able to 'import' Jackie Dickson and Mike Collier from Dallas, and combined with the vocal skills of Sheila Gott and Steve Butler, they made what were undoubtedly my personal favourites of all the packages...

if I had time.... I'd sit here for an hour listening to them all again :-)

You can hear re-sings of many of the cuts on www.trentsound.com ~ good jingles live on....

GEM-AM - AlfaSound / PAMS ID Jingles by ID Jingles

@tcarman I'd heard some of these Asian / Sabras resings for GEM over the years, a really interesting piece of audio, thanks for posting :)

These jingles came about as to serve Leicester with its 33% Asian population (in 1989) a mix of the PAMS tracks + a few Alan Fawkes/Alfasound ones were used for an Asian show 'Sabras' in the evening. The vocals had to be done in Manchester, so there was somewhat of a 'cultural clash' of 1960s Dallas tracks, with Manchester vocalists singing for an Asian station.

At 0.10 it is Alan Fawkes doing a demo for the singers of the pronounciation of the lyrics they were to sing.

The track at 1.21 is a super Alan Fawkes 'PAMS style' track from GEM 1 in '88.

The PAMS Textures cut at 1.41 features the Alfa singer Sue, not the usual lead vocalist Sheila Gott (who last year went back to Alfa to re-sing old Trent tracks for the on-line service Trent Sound.

I had nothing to do with the production of these, it was down to David Lloyd the station manager at Leicester.

Later we stopped doing GEM on 12.60AM and Sabras became an independent Asian radio station because the GEM service there did not appeal to the Asian population so 'only' ( !) got a 16-19% reach... (Eat your 'heart' out GOLD!)

Thanks for the Sabras resings - yet MORE things I've missed out on during the "gap years"!

And that sing of the good old "Smooth Sailing..." is actually very "mellow" - great voice!

AlfaSound - Severn Presentation DEMO (Partial) by ID Jingles (Tracy Carman)

Thanks for posting the Severn Sound demo TC...it always intrigues me how the custom process works and the differences between the demos and the actual finished cuts. Interesting to hear how the third cut previewed sounds quite similar to the finished item and the evolution of the main theme.

It's also nice hearing this because Severn Sound was one of the stations I used to listen to when I was considerably younger and I remember when they changed FM frequency (which was commmonplace in the mid-eighties in the UK due to EBU legislation) from 95.0 to 102.4 and changed to this jingle package...hence the "Move on up". Even though the Steve England narration said about continuity to the previous second package, the immediate package before this produced by another company - CBC.

This package lasted on-air for over two years, with only a few additions including a couple of resings around the time Severn Sound opened a relay in the Stroud area of Southern Gloucestershire. In late 1988 these jingles were replaced by a short-lived TM package
