Great stuff Jon. That would certainly help.
I suspect a few of us DJ's, me included, would like to have a look & maybe grab
some of the tracks for personal use, even if HR don't need them.
I do remember the name Kelly from many moons ago.

I could probably do a file name check against our existing set. I just have
this recollection that we had them sat in a separate folder on the removable
drive for years waiting to be looked at and noone ever did. Then eventually I
archived them away because we needed the disk space. Was along time ago though.
As a minimum I can generate a list and people are more than welcome to have a
peruse.

** Hastings Rock Radio **
Kelly (chap who now runs one of the Asian community stations in
Southampton briefly ran a rock RSL in the mid 2000s) gave them to us as
a bit of a "thank you" because we gave a bit of assistance in the
setup. Hence I think they are all *supposed* to be rock tracks but I
don't think anyone has seriously looked at them.
Ok, well next time we're all together in a proper meeting I'll try and
remember to bring them along.

I'd be willing to have a look at those DVD's, but as they're that old
I'd suspect we'd have a lot of the tracks anyway. Or maybe I could do
one disc & someone else do the other? Spread the load. Are they all
Rock tracks do you know Jon, or a mixture? Also, any idea who gave
them to us?

fwiw I have ~16GB of music tracks that were given to us about 15 years
ago that no-one has ever gone through. They've been sat in a cupboard
here on a couple of DVDs if anyone wants a project.

I think that the time to have a thorough going through of the
playlist is after the broadcast. The only suggestions that I have
made during the broadcast are for Gravity Machine and South of
Salem to be added for robojock playout because I know they have a
strong following. As for Marillion I’m not a huge post-Fish fan but
I have a few tracks.

Whilst I agree that there are always gaps to be filled, surely the
time to do this is after this current broadcast is over, not during
it when everyone has enough on their respective plates anyway?
If you're going to contact certain listeners, why not get them to
supply the tracks themselves? Rather than us having to do it for
them. I'm guessing that they'd already have them.
Just have to make sure it's all kept quiet & discreet as you say.
That way we won't have to pay for the music.
As for Marillion, we had this discussion some years ago when Bob
Kenward was involved. He kept mentioning about the lack of post Fish
era Marillion in the database. I thought he'd supplied a load of
their more recent material then.
Ultimately, we can't be expected to have everything in our main
database. I saw the FB thread about missing tracks & I'd never heard
of many of the acts mentioned. I may well be out of touch, but we're
always going to lack something that a listener wants to hear.

Subject: [Hastings Rock] Missing tracks .
As you may be aware our large Library is missing some listeners Fav
tracks and in some cases their fav Band .
ive treid over the years to fill these gaps .
Here is my proposal , as we are not yet half way though the
broadcast , We can plug the gaps now .
This will only work with help from Jon to load the tracks and Sarah
to supply them . So are you two up for it ?
I will then contact the listeners I have in mind that know their
stuff discreetly by email , two that I have in mind are Alex (big
Al) and Paul Darnell . other listerners have stated the tracks that
are missing which is usefull .
Brain Dade says we are lacking in Marilion , apparently Tony Davis
is a fan so maybe you can help with that ?
What we need is the best of not whole albums .
Nick.
