Does anyone remember Alan Robson of Radio Metro in Newcastle?  He used
to DJ a heavy metal show called the "Hot 'n' Heavy Express," and used to
have a segment on it called the "mega mix" where he'd play a mix of
songs by the same band for about half an hour straight as a sampler/
retrospective.  He did a Hawkwind mega mix once, and segued the tracks
quicker than normal.  Despite that, he still only managed to cover the
gist of their official recorded output.

(He even did a Venom mega mix once!:)

Is he still on the air, I wonder?

Cheers,

Paul.
