Dave Marley

Dave has been a DJ since the early 80s, but it was not until the 90’s that he became interested in radio presenting. With love and respect all types of good music, his taste and knowledge stretch as far back as the 1950s through to the current charts. Growing up in West London listening to the radio as a young lad and starting his collection of vinyl at the mere age of 5 years old, by saving his pocket money to buy records as often as possible, now some 50-odd years on, his vinyl collection and knowledge has grown immensely. He grew up listening to the fathers of British Broadcasting, to presenters such as the late great Alan “Fluff” Freeman with his “Pick of the Pop”, Tony Blackburn, John Peel and soul DJ and good friend Greg Edwards with his Soul Spectrum. After some 30 years presenting on various radio stations, from pirate radio, to hospital radio, local community radio and many different live events over the years, since 2023 he has been presenting his own breakfast show called "Marley in the Morning" It's 3 hours of "feel good" music every weekday morning from 7am to 10am here on this station. The show includes music from the golden era of the 60s through to the 00s. Its packed with music facts and info, and some great features throughout, such as "80s at 8" 30mins of 80s classics from 8 till 8.30. "The Workout Track", something lively to workout each morning. "The 5 at 9", 5 tracks in a row just after 9am, leaving you to try and guess the years to win your own "virtual gold star award" "The Midway Extended Play", a daily classic 12'inch extended mix "Born today in music history", "Featured Classic Album", we pick a classic album each week, and play a track a day at 9.30, and if all that wasn't enough to quench your thirst for good music and great radio, there's "The Theme tune Finish" at the end of every show, jogging memories of sometimes long forgotten TV shows you absolutely would not miss back in the day. Someone said recently about the show.. "ITS THE BEST THING SINCE TISWAS!" tune in and make up you own mind.
