Dear All

We have received the following from the BBC regarding Kenny Lynch on The Light Programme ...

Thanks for getting in touch. I have now checked and there appears to be no record of any holdings for Kenny Lynch’s appearances on the Light Programme.

All his appearances seem to have been on music programmes, which were not usually kept in great numbers.

It's a shame that it takes someone to die before someone takes an interest in their career...

Hi William, at least 7 songs were included on the Top Of The Pops transcription disc series no.s 4, 122 and 151.
The 2 from disc 4 seem to have been taken from Top Gear 10/12/64 for example.
I haven't worked through all the discs yet but discs 122 and 151 most likely originate from Saturday Club at a guess.
More may survive as off airs though I can't confirm that right now.
I suspect the list of appearances may be incomplete as (for instance) guests weren't always fully listed in Radio Times and circa 1965, Easy Beat stopped listing the artists who would be appearing.
I'm not sure when I'll be finishing my book on BBC pop radio sessions but full details will appear in it along with details of a lot of off airs which are held in private collections.
Although the overall survival rate of BBC sessions is pretty shocking (that's an understatement), it is surprising how much has survived, largely discovered through the efforts of various collectors.
