Pop Master today.

I don't think I'll ever be old enough for Radio 2

Ah, those heady days in the 70s with Annie Nightingale on lazy Sunday afternoons followed by Tom Brown presenting the Top Twenty...

 

[Saluki]

I didn’t hear it today. Any time I get over20, I am deeply chuffed with myself. 33 is my best ever score, but it was a while back.

If I get 2 questions and a Bonus, it's a good day... though the easiness or difficulty of some of the questions is sometimes astounding- especially the bonus ones! Good job it's not serious for prizes!

I hated Tony Blackburn on Radio One I could just about tolerate him on Top of the Pops

this must be a sign of getting seriously old if you've moved out of radio 2's wavelength.
When I was young the thought of listening to radio 2 was unthinkable.

Tony Blackburn -

I'll never be old enough for R2. I ride my bike on the left and dress on the left. (Unless across the channel of course.) Middle of the road isn't for me. I gave up listening to that sort of "music" around age 20.

I've scored in the 30's a few times ..... and scored a big fat zero twice! For me, music stopped in about 1999 and I need loads of 70's and 80's questions. It's pot luck really.

Similar here, My musical interest more or less stopped in 1988. Give me questions on the 50's, 60's, and 70's and I'm your man.

That was a Wham! Song 1985.

I've never been a big fan of radio after I left my teenage years behind for I had a £1000 worth of stereo equipment to listen too that was in the late 70s and preferred records and tapes, later in the car I had top of the range 8 track.....remember them..... so radio didn't even count, and I hated Tony Blackburn on Radio One I could just about tolerate him on Top of the Pops

How do you get introduced into new music, do decide whether you like it or not, how did you know what to add to your collection?

3 points to you.

 

[Dave7]

3 points to you.

That was a bonus question so 6 points

Today I scored 39/39/2 (annoyed with myself for not getting the Three In Ten). It's the first time in fifteen years on-and-off of listening that I've ever got 39 on both rounds. One of the bonus questions was from 25 years before I was born

I went on PopMaster in October 2018 and won with 33 points - but fluffed the Three In Ten (Rihanna - I'd get three easily now, though!)

Tennessee Ernie Ford, which I knew as well.

I started about 20 years ago and have always found it very relaxing and enjoyable.

Give it a try you might be surprised
