Frankie Goes To Hollywood

**Frankie Goes To Hollywood** were a British pop band formed in Liverpool in 1980. Emerging from the alternative scene in the city, they shot to fame in 1983 with their debut single Relax, produced by Trevor Horn for the ZTT label, which after initial radio play and even a *Top of the Pops* performance, was famously banned by the BBC. The record went to no.1 in the UK immediately after.

A second no.1 single Two Tribes followed in 1984, and their debut album *Welcome to the Pleasuredome* also became a UK no.1 spawning a third no.1 single The Power of Love, making FGTH the second act in the history of the UK charts to reach number one with their first three singles.

A second album *Liverpool* was released in 1986, although favoured less well and after the promotional tour the group split, with lead singer Holly Johnson going on to pursue a solo career.

## Links to Janice

Janice was an early advocate and fan of the group. In an interview in 2021 with Matthew Jacobson she recalled:

> *I vividly remember going to see Hambi and the Dance supported by Frankie Goes to Hollywood at Pickwicks. There were sound problems for FGTH and they ended up going on after Hambi. Oh my God, I was blown away. They were unbelievable. I knew they were truly special. After the gig I asked Holly if he would pop in to see me at Radio Merseyside and he did the next day. He came with a demo and of course I played it on ‘Streetlife’ again and again. I spoke to my brother Jeff who was an A&R man and asked him for contacts and I sent copies of the demo off to all of them.[1]*

After her death, FGTH tweeted:

> *First ever Frankie radio interview was conducted by her on Street Life on Radio Merseyside and she was the first to play us on the radio when she played the demo of "Relax". Always had our back.[2]*

Andy Kershaw

**Andy Kershaw** (b.09 November 1959) is a former broadcaster and BBC Radio 1 disc jockey, known for his interest in alternative music especially country, blues, reggae, folk and African music.

He began his career at Radio 1 in In July 1985 (the week before *Live Aid* [1], although had already featured been a presenter on *Whistle Test* on BBC Two since 1984. He worked closely with John Peel with whom he shared producer John Walters. His contract with Radio 1 ended in 2000 although his interest in world music lead him to BBC Radio Three which had been expanding its horizons away from featuring just classical music.

In September 2020 Kershaw returned to BBC Radio 3 presenting a two episode series *The Kershaw Tapes*, documenting his travels around Africa and the Americas searching out great music and taping it on his Walkman Pro.[2] *More Kershaw Tapes* and *Even More Kershaw Tapes* were broadcast on Radio Three in May 2021.[3]

Also starting in May 2021 he has produced and made available on-line his own series of podcasts entitled *Andy Kershaw Plays Some Bloody Great Records*. [4]

Andy is the younger brother to broadcaster Liz Kershaw.

## Links to Janice

Kershaw became a colleague of Janice when joining Radio 1 in 1985. Like Janice he had also presented Live Aid for Africa from Wembley. Their tastes in more alternative music would have brought them together as friends as well as colleagues.

from *The Mouth Magazine, October 2018*

> ***YOU WENT ON A BLIND DATE WITH COURTNEY LOVE…** I did. Yeah. I didn’t know who she was. She wasn’t known back then. Janice Long, do you remember Janice from Radio One? Janice Long used to take it upon herself to organise my social life. She announced that we were going out to the Hammersmith Odeon the following weekend to see Motorhead, and that she’d got me on a blind date. When I turned up there was this blonde American woman – who was a bit scruffy actually. She was not at all interested in me – and I wasn’t that bothered about her, either. We went to the Motorhead after-concert party, and she was just looking over me shoulder the whole time, to see if anybody more famous was entering the room… Only at the point when I mentioned – casually, and also because it was true – that Joe Strummer was a pal of mine, did she pay me any heed. I suddenly became the most fascinating man in the whole world…*
>
>

Kershaw told Janice Long about his first trip to Glastonbury in 1986 on one of her regular evening shows (see 23 June 1986 & BBC Sounds clip), giving a kind of 'Beginners Guide' as the festival was still relatively unknown.

He also took part in *Janice Long and John Peel's New Year's Eve Party* presenting 'Video Video'*, "the top videos as chosen over the last few months by Whistle Test viewers".*

Black

**Black** was the stage name used by singer-songwriter and recording artist Colin Vearncombe (b.26 May 1962 – d.2016). Originally a duo, formed by Vearncombe and Dave "Dix" Dickie, Black signed to WEA in 1984 touring with bands such as Thompson Twins and Wah! although were dropped by the label after their second single failed to make any breakthrough. The duo then split with just Vearncombe retaining the name.

It was during these initial solo years that he wrote the song Wonderful Life, which would go on to be one of his best known. Originally released in 1986 on an independent label, the single attracted the attention of A&M who signed Black to the label. the artist began releasing new material and the first chart hit came with the slow ballad Sweetest Smile which reached no.8 in the UK in July 1987. Wonderful Life was then re-released and also reached no.8, leading the way for the album of the same name which finally gave Vearncombe both critical and commercial success. the album reached no.3 in the UK, held back only by such greats as Michael Jackson and Chris Rea, and outselling artists such as Cliff Richard in its initial weeks of release.

Follow-up albums *Comedy* (1988)and the eponymous *Black* (1991) and singles were less successful, although a comeback from 2009 onwards gained critical success, with albums being made available as downloads.

Vearncombe tragically died after a car accident in Ireland on 26 January 2016, at the age of 53.

## Links to Janice

As a duo hailing from Liverpool, Janice may well have been aware of Black, even in their early days. The session Black recorded for her show took place just after Black had signed to A&M and previewed tracks which would appear almost a year later on the debut *Wonderful Life* album.

Janice paid homage to Vearncombe after his untimely death in 2016, by playing tracks from the session on her Radio 2 show.

A Flock of Seagulls

**A Flock Of Seagulls** were a group from Liverpool, UK formed in 1980. While their debut single Talking, produced by Bill Nelson, failed to make any impact the group began to enjoy minor success in 1982 with successive singles I Ran and Space Age Love Song released on the Jive label. Their best known single, Wishing (If I Had a Photograph Of You), reached the Top 10 in late 1982 and remained their highest chart hit.

The group were also known for their striking visual image, including their unusual hair styles. Founder member Mike Score had in fact originally trained and worked as a hairdresser and early rehearsals would take place in a hairdresser's salon. The group's name allegedly comes from the lyrics of a Stranglers' song "Toiler on the Sea".

## Links to Janice

Janice was an early fan of the group whom she would have known from her Liverpool clubbing and Streetlife days at Radio Merseyside. There is some confusion about the date of their session for Janice show, which may well have been for her debut show on 04 December 1982, however there are some claims it was recorded late December with a transmission date of 22 January 1983 although this may have been a repeat date. An official release of the session in 2023 does however state 04/12/1982.

Members of the band were Janice's guests on her Radio Wales show in August 2021 (see below).

Aztec Camera

**Aztec Camera** were a British new wave band from East Kilbride, Scotland. The group was founded in 1980 by vocalist and guitarist **Roddy Frame** (b. 1964) who also wrote the majority of the group's output. They released six albums between 1983 and 1995, five of which entered the Top 30. Five of their singles went Top 40 in the UK, the last of which "Good Morning Britain" was recorded with Mick Jones, formerly of The Clash. Frame changed the band's line-up numerous times over the course of its existence and, in a 1988 interview, explained that the changes were motivated by "a desire to continually improve the quality of their music".

After the final Aztec Camera album in 1995, Frame decided to record as a solo artist. All Aztec Camera's studio albums have been re-released and a 30th anniversary edition of *High Land, Hard Rain* in 2013 was supported with three live performances of the album played in its entirety with a full band.

Bay City Rollers

**Bay City Rollers** were a pop group from Edinburgh, Scotland. They had ten Top 10 hits in the UK between 1971 and 1976, including two consecutive no.1's in 1975. Their first two albums also made the no.1 spot in the UK 1974 and 1975. With their good looks and strict 'tartan army' dress code the group became one of the first 'boy bands' in modern pop culture. Such was their popularity, the term "Rollermania" was coined, just as "Beatlemania" had been invented ten years earlier. The group have continued to disband and reform since their commercial demise in the late seventies.

Founding member Alan Longmuir died in 2018, aged 70, lead vocalist Les McKeown died in 2021, aged 65.

## Links to Janice

Janice would have been a fan of the group, growing up in the 70s. It's not known whether she ever met them.

Read was a colleague of Janice during all her time at Radio 1, and their paths occasionally crossed, despite the former being prevalently a breakfast show DJ with Janice broadcasting in the evenings. It's not known whether they "clashed" over the banning of the Relax single, which would have been a favourite of Janice's after championing FGTH on national radio.

The two appeared together on the following shows:

* 22 July 1984 (Radio 1 Roadshow)

The tweet was to promote Read's United DJs on-line radio show on which Janice was apparently featuring.[1]

### TV

The pair presented Top of the Pops together on a few (but not several) occasions:

* 28 July 1983 (TOTP)
* 23 February 1984 (TOTP)

In March 2009 the two appeared as opponents on the *Bargain Hunts Famous Finds* programme, first shown on BBC Two, and repeated on BBC One in August 2011.[2]

### Tribute

After Janice's death Read tweeted:

> Very, very sad to hear about my old friend & colleague, the lovely Janice Long. An absolute delight to do many radio and TV programmes with and always a champion of good music. How terrible that we never get to say goodbye. A tear, a big hug & wonderful memories. [3]
