JFM was the first pirate station I found out about back in the day. I remember many stations were weekend only and when they got taken off air by the DTI you had to wait weeks before they returned.
lol I also, remember having to extend my Ariel with a piece of wire and a coat hanger and hold it out the window to try and get the best reception for recording. Those were the days, ay?

Youve posted this piece giving the impression that JFM were the pioneers of Jazz Funk and Soul music in London from 1981.
You are very very WRONG!
The FIRST station to play the music in London were Radio Invicta 92.4 who broadcast their first programme in 1970.
Their music and presenters were a different clas to JFM and the awful horizon and lwr.........

as for jfm it was a good station at times with GREAT djs like Jeff Young and Steve Walsh doing guest shows, but they also had their share of dickhead djs like graham gold and caesar the geezer!!!!

This morning I have been listening to a compilation of soul classics from way back. Al Green, O'Jays, Tower of Power, Major Harris and on and on. At 51, I still get that wierd inner feeling listening to this kind of music; it just never goes away. And I know it never will.

Now you really take me back when you started chatting about JFM (JAZZ FUNK MUSIC) God, I can remember tuning in to JFM on a Saturday Night to Listen to the Electro Chart Countdown.. Must have been very early 80s. Its an Honour to find someone like yourself. I was also involved in pirate radio myself in the early 90s but I was playing drum n bass. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and keep up the good work.. Look forward to your reply.. Dave

Hi Dave - all those bands and artistes familiar with me too of course. Sharon Red, D-Train - got a couple to post up some time, Roy Ayers, Eddie Henderson - it just goes on. I consider myself lucky to have had a show, and such a good slot, on JFM. Special days - glad you heard the station and went on to do it yourself. One thing that got me was just how committed to the music everyone was. Great to hear from you, 'Keep in Touch'
