Tom Robinson "Listen To the Radio"
This week's Saturday Timewatch features a classic Philips radio. I can't quite nail the model but it was probably released around the late 1950s, maybe early 1960s.....note the "FM" waveband. Their very similar B3G63A circa 1956 still used the designation "VHF".
It is the list of stations around Europe that really stands out, so reminiscent of Tom Robinson's lyrics shown below. For example, "Hilversum" was a source of great mystery to a young lad from England. Yet just the other day we went through that very town not too far from Amsterdam!
