De hoogste nieuwe binnenkomer is de zangeres zonder Naam op 26 met Mandolinen in Nicosia. De Spaanse schone van de Classics verwelkomen we deze week op nummer 29. Tango Johhny, die ook life werd gezongen vanaf de Mebo II, verwelkomen we op nummer 38. Een ware gouwe ouwe komt nieuw binnen op nummer 45, In the Mood van het Glenn Miller Orchestra, deze keer onder leiding van Buddy de Franco. Het mooie Someone van Axis is deze week de treiterschijf. Een van mijn favorieten is deze week door Alfred Lagarde tot kanskaart gekozen : Marcella van de Beach Boys.

Deze Top 50 kun je hier beluisteren:

Dutch service news today is read by Leo van der Goot and Gerard Smit. Marc van Amstel must have gone on shore leave. On the International service, news is read by Arnold Layne, Brian McKenzie and Tony Allan and programmes are:

Tony Allan said "Mike Ross is furthering his education. He's just come in and said 'Hey Tony, where have you put your Superman magazines'". Focus are featured on Driemaster talking about their new LP.

A mobile discotheque is advertised for today featuring Tony Berk and Mike Ross, but, obviously, Mike Ross will not be appearing as he is on board the Mebo 2.

 

Sunday 6 August 1972

The final Karel Prior programme is broadcast this morning. Hans ten Hooge presents a programme after this from 11.00 to 13.00 and Leo van der Goot presents Driemaster. Dutch news is read by Leo van der Goot and Gerard Smit.

 24.00 - 3.00 Brian McKenzie

Strangest thing today is that, after playing Paul May's hitpick, Tony Allan said "That's hitbound on RNI this week", so maybe Paul has now left. News is read by Rob Eden, Brian McKenzie and Tony Allan.
