AFTER THE 6.00am NEWS IT'S DAVE, STANDING IN FOR BILL, WITH THE BREAKFAST SHOW!

It's June 1978, Dave Burrows stands in for Bill Steel on Metro Radio's Breakfast Show... and of course "Grease" is the defining word, that we continually heard!

Dave Burrows.

Time for another blast from Metro Radio's past! This time we're going to listen to a rare appearance on the Breakfast Show of Dave Burrows.

Dave was standing in for the regular host who was Bill Steel of course and who was away on holiday. Once again we are indebted to Neil Siddaway of Middlesbrough for these absolutely fantastic recordings. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who can reminisce with these superb recordings via our musical time machine.

If the twenty first century all seems a bit too complicated and hectic, then it's time to bookmark our Programme Downloads page, and use it as a little piece of seventies magic, if not tranquillity and peace for even more programmes!

So here we go. Metro's opening sequence and first news of the day have been broadcast and it's a couple of minutes past six on the morning of Friday June 16, 1978.

You've risen early and now it's time to fully wake up with a strong cup of coffee, put the toast on and enjoy Metro's Breakfast Show with Dave Burrows and the North East Sound.

Dave Burrows' Breakfast Show, (Dave Burrows covering for Bill Steel, excerpt). Air date: June 16, 1978. Duration: 30 minutes.
