Pilot living in Dubai - I used to love the Hotline presented by him in the 80s.

There was a thread about him recently in the radio forum. There is a link to an interview he did with Ian Dempsey last may....

To think the beatbox was the stuff of multimedia dreams at the time,simulcast with vision on RTE 2 and stereo sound on radio 2!! :eek::eek:

I'm nearly sure that Barry Lang was hosting the beatbox the day that Nelson Mandela was released,there was feck all videos played as they kept cutting back to a live shot from outside the prison.

You are right, that's exactly how I remember the Nelson Mandela release. Barry Lang was great. I remember Smiley Bolger too, whatever happened to him?
