Heads up: In the New Year, Music For A While is moving day and time. Beginning Monday, January 1, 2024, this little show will now be heard from 11:00 to 12:30, with a slight interruption at noon for the BBC News. Start your New Year with Music For A While at its new time-slot.
Now, the Goon Show/Monty Python fan in me is tempted to poke fun at the British Mother Corporation as they did, biting the hand that feeds them, or so they were accused. But I will not fall to temptation and will use great restraint from intoning in my best possible Wallace Greenslade voice, "This is the BBC Home Service". Yes, I will resist the urge.
