"This is the Post Office 'Dial-a-Disc' Service..."

The Dial-a-Disc service -- introduced in 1966 -- by which U.K. residents could phone in and hear songs recorded by engineers from 7" records onto continuous loop reel-to-reel. Music was played back to the caller by an EA9A machine originally designed to handle high call volume during cricket Test Matches and repurposed in the off-season months to share pop 45s by phone.

The girls sing about Mama, on Crayons to Perfume! 7pm

That's little Richard Whig and his Mom Marti in 1969!

Today on Crayons To Perfume! The girls sing about their Mamas, on our tribute to Mothers Day show (a few days early). Like any self-centered teenager, the girls mostly end up singing about themselves... but we'll let Mama get a few words in herself. Check out the video below, and listen to Crayons to Perfume!
