MUSICAL BARTER
S the owner of an old beatenup 5-valve wreck whose maximum range falls well short of the city limits, I can heartily endorse the present policy of the NZBS in presenting delayed broadcasts of light musical groups from other centres. Southern listeners are no doubt familiar with such names as Nancy Harrie, the Duplicats, the Knaves, Warwick Ransom and Julien Lee, some of whose recorded programmes have been replayed outside Auckland. Similarly, we Northerners are becoming acquainted with such artists as John Parkin and Péter Jeffries, Henry Rudolph’s Serenaders, the Bob Bradford Quartette and Keith Harris and his Rhythmaires, all of whom have been heard from either 1YA or 1YD in recent weeks. It would be easy (and rather tempting!) to draw comparisons between the standards of performance in this system of musical barter, but the scheme is sound and constfuctive. The NZBS has ensured that the percentage of New Zealand produced programmes will be increased, that the local listener will hear something different, and that the artist will be assured of a larger audiefice than he normally would enjoy.
