Snoop tape of day 1. Snippets of Kevin Savage, Jim Ellery, Margaret Rogers, Jim Ellery, Steve Crozier, and Chris Prior. A Snoop Tape is a recording that is made only when the presenter's microphone is live. The purpose of a Snoop Tape is to "snoop" on the presenter so that he can be critiqued later. While the Snoop Tape only captured audio while the presenter's microphone is live, you do get to hear tiny segments of the show as it unfolds.

The Late Show presented by Phil Wright sometime in 1984 (there is a reference to the station being 5 years old). 90 Minutes of The Late Show recorded in the studio (not off Medium Wave).

The first half hour is virtually a straight take of the last half hour of a Kevin Savage Drive show from May 1982 but thereafter the whole thing has been crafted from a multitude of pieces.

Starting with a brief history of the Transkei and Capital Radio 604, this 80's mix created by Adrian Horwitz contains mashups of different 604 shows and presenters throughout the 1980s.
