My Music 25 November 1986

[@montyf2165]

Lovely memories watching this with my Grandparents. How I miss family programmes we could all watch and enjoy together. Thank god fot YT.

Listened to My Music regularly but this is the first time I ever saw Steve Race's face.

[@nickbarton3191]

Race had a nice jazz program on ITV mid 70s. My mother hated it, but I still love jazz.

[@TheStefmcd]

Thanks for this. Delightfully relaxing entertainment. ❤

[@rosalindnicholson4646]

So gentle, so wonderful! What a delight to see it again.

OMG, I had no idea they did one TV episode! Thank you so much! I listened to this and My Word! for a while in the 70s on WFMT, the classical station in Chicago. Then I started listening again in the 80s. I even bought a shortwave radio to listen to them on the World Service! And most recently I listened to webcasts when they were still being repeated on FM stations, and finally on Radio Australia.

With DONALD SWANN in the audience! OMG!

[@spmoran4703]

This programme and Face the music introduced me to Classical music.

[@nickhickson8738]

Which is more than Classic Fm will ever do with their endless repetitive playlists of all the 'nice' bits.

[@RichardEvans-sl7yu]

Wonderful memories thank you, It would be gratifying to see many many more of an excellent series

Listened regularly to this prog on radio; wasn't aware it had been on TV. Back in 1966 I worked with an attractive young lady called Nicola..and to this day I can still wistle the tune to Steve Race's 'Nicola'. (Much later found out that she married a Kelly!)

[@angelacooper2661]

By Jove, I remember My Music when growing up, especially Steve Race. Here I would have been a 16 year old YTS trainee, having left school in the summer. My father turned 54 that day!

Great to see this. Thanks for uploading these.

THE GREAT DAYS OF T

[@caseyjonessnr1200]

One of y favourite television programmes.

[@SamHodkin23]

Good to see an edition of this at last, moreso to put a face to the voice of Steve Race (Did an excellent turn on Many a Slip). Janet Staplehurst did many a year on stopwatch/whistle/scoring duties on Just a Minute following Ian Messiter vacating the position in the late 80s.

[@barpypardlo]

So civilised.

[@PhilHaley-mv2ud]

Nothing like it these days on our 'channel of culture ', which now covers all cultures but ours.

[@stevecharters8965]

Strange how they once thought that radio shows could simply be transferred directly into visual media - television for the blind, where nothing actually happens!

[@davidkelly7272]

...that's whistle!

[@MrDavey2010]

The show was incorrectly introduced as Face The Music!

[@montyf2165]

Indeed, that was a different programme entirely. Nice to see this again.

[@markpunt9638]

I think it was the expression face the music being used rather than the title of the other program. Presentation were allowed to do that kind of thing back then.

[@angelacooper2661]

​​@@montyf2165That was presented by Joseph Cooper and would have been in the 70s, my formative years!

[@AndrewDeakin-v4l]

John Amis saves this program being fixed in its period like aspic.

[@geoffphillips5293]

Gosh Steve Race doesn't look anything like I imagined from Many a Slip!

[@markpunt9638]

All scripted, of course 😊

[@markwell4720]

Yes, the participants read their scripts on cue!
