*Everett (Kenny, 1944-1995). A group of five original master tapes of Kenny Everett's pre-recorded programmes produced for Radio Victory, Portsmouth, 1976, each recorded on Emitape reels, one with handwritten recording report completed by Keith Butler, a second one apparently completed by Kenny Everett for 2nd May, contained in original card boxes, two with Radio Victory labels and identified as recordings for 25th April and 2nd May 1976, one with label marked Victory and one marked 'Last Victory Show', 27 x 27 cm A CD transfer of each 50-minute programme is included with the lot. The content of each show is typical, madcap Everett in full pomp, playing tunes of the day, with occasional nods to Beethoven, Bach and Europop, the whole interspersed with Everett's trademark joking, humour and quizzes. Being pre-recorded there are no commercial adverts on these tapes, merely references at the points in the programme when Radio Victory would have broadcast these adverts. Also featuring on these tapes are performances of Everett's self-penned and performed radio serial Captain Kremmen. A rare slice of British radio history. (5)
