The Magic Radio (Radio Luxembourg)
The original pressing of this album is ""Undoubtedly one of the RAREST UK LPs EVER made! Up until 1973 Radio Luxembourg had the monopoly on advertising on UK Radio - as all other Radio Stations were BBC only! However in 1973 the 'Independent Local Radio' project was begun - and for the first time Radio Luxembourg faced serious competition for Radio advertising! And so they commissioned this LP (99 copies only to avoid tax!) to be given to advertising people to advertise their Radio Station. For the VERY FIRST TIME Jeff Wayne (later more famous of his legendary 'War Of The Worlds' double LP in 1977) was commissioned to write ALL the music on this LP! Naturally this makes this a very VERY important LP indeed - as it was the first time EVER that Jeff Wayne was given a chance to put music into an LP! Plus the fact that only 99 copies were EVER made making this 'Promotional ONLY' LP one of the ALL TIME rarest UK LPs ever made!
