RJR Radio Jamaica 1978

[@nfn4]

I can't believe that i sit here listening to this and reminiscing on my childhood feeling like it was just a few months ago. Trust me, I'm over half a century.

[@okapislash5406]

Marie Garth ? Anyone remembers her lol....Dorraine Samuels...Neville Willoughby...Dennis Hall..Ali McNab ...Lindy Delapena...Ed Barnes ...Winston Barnes ..Ed Bartlett ...Chris Harmon or Almond ...Allan Magnus ..Tony Pattel .....help ! I have Somezhimers but clearly not Alzhiemers.

[@AckeeEater.]

I think you're right. The clue for me was "Special Lady" by Ray, Goodman & Brown. It was around 1980 when the singing group, The Moments, renamed themselves as RG&B. So, yes. --Æ.

[@AckeeEater.]

Ed Bartlett?? Nah. The only radio hosting he did was for Radio StETHS in about 1968-1969. For real! We had a small station which we exhibited at The Arena for Schools Science Exhibition with my batchmate Ed Bartlett on the mike. (Came 2nd; lost to Kingston Tech which displayed a working steam boiler. LOL.) --Æ.

The golden voice of the legendary Marie Garth

[@dannyperkinstv1828]

So true

[@nevbones4599]

Oh mercy, take me back almost 40 years 😊

[@January5SoundSystem]

I was born in 1975 many of these ads. I remember growing up.

[@donaldthompson3082]

I live in New York but RJR Radio station is the best in the world

[@journey2peace994]

I sing the themed song 🎵 🎶 ever so often 😢memories . I used to sit and have my breakfast 🍳 and getting ready for primary school . It would be playing in the background and this automatically brings me back 😢.

[@healthyhigherminds2978]

HAPPY Tears as I grind my coffee beans in the kitchen on Sunday morning. GOD IS THE GREATEST

[@downmemorylanenow]

Mr. Radcliff Butler was my announcer, I even named one of my brothers after him (Radcliff Francis)

[@chrishawkes4348]

thanks for this - would love to hear more RJR or JBC vintage broadcasts!

[@ianjohnson7824]

These days omg they were the best years

[@January5SoundSystem]

Wow thank you for uploading this gem.

[@Zavitastic]

I love that fact that they kept Star Scope after all this time. I hope they keep it forever. It's one of the many programs that made RJR great

[@dannyperkinstv1828]

Thank you so much for this the good old days of rjr94 fm /radio jamaica 94 fm

[@eapradius]

WOW! I remember that caymanas sound as a boy!

[@Zavitastic]

Does anyone know what the name of that sound for the Cricket announcement is?

[@January5SoundSystem]

Phenomenal Marie Garth

[@rickflint3710]

I feel transported 😊

[@Zaga_Zow]

The nostalgia 😖

[@stanleyhaughton8248]

I love rjr

[@marciaebanks2774]

The best in the world

[@marburrell]

This has to be 1980 and not 1978. Both songs mentioned, "Special Lady" and "Merry Go Round" were released in 1980

[@OLDTIMEANOINTEDGOSPELMUSIC]

For years I wondered what happened to Marie Gath only to find out that she left RJR to work in a hospital in Florida - So famous but was so poor from RJR's meager salary

[@jermainelindo6944]

real jamaica 🇯🇲 📻 radio

[@raywilson3059]

Definitely NOT from the 70’s but still a good time capsule of RJR back then.

[@quackdracular7610]

Oh yes it is. I should know, I was a 11 year old boy at the time and this was the soundtrack of my life . Also the announcements are consistent with the period.

[@nfn4]

Does anyone remember the RJR death announcements music. Oh boy, it was so solemn that it used you to make me afraid😂

[@metrometro9156]

Oh yes marie garth i wonder what happen to her
