Let's hope someone out there will post up another show for everyone!

Agree with Bonga above, that 78 Xmas show is not his best radio stuff by a mile with lots of not so crucial stuff on it, very little (if any,as I recall) vocal from Mikey himself. I have heard much much better cassettes and will try get my nits on a couple of thoses cassettes from a friend. If I do I will share them. DATC was a radio legend.

Though i think bonga refered to the studio 1 show mikey did on a dutch radio station it is most certainly good news that someone still got tapes of the DATC shows!
To my shame i have to admit that the X-mas show posted above was the first "real" DATC show i ever listend to (born to late) - and it's way better than the dutch studio1 show (which i had on cd but lost it).
So if you have the chance to digitalize some of the original shows than do it! I can't even imagine how much your karma will increase for makin so many people happy
Start right now!!

yes indeed, I was talking about that studio one show. Every tune starts with a 10 or 20 second spoken introduction, and that's about it...
