| SPECIAL “VINTAGE RADIO” PROGRAMMES HONOURING HENRY DIFFENTHAL Dear Vintage Radio Listeners, It is with great pride that “Vintage Radio” honours one of South African Radio’s greatest drama producers during May. Henry Diffenthal, Durban based producer of numerous Springbok Radio productions of the past. Henry started his radio career in 1954 as a sound engineer at the Herrick Merrill Studios in Durban. He quickly established himself has one of the best. In 1966 he started the “Olympia Recording Studios” in Durban. Olympia is one of very few of the original Springbok Radio production houses still around. All the productions that will feature in May have been carefully selected by Henry and will be a definite highlight to the listeners of “Vintage Radio” on Radio Today 1485 AM. I would like to take this opportunity in thanking Henry for all the support & encouragement that he has shown for the efforts in preserving the remaining Springbok Radio programmes & also the support for “Vintage Radio” in the nearly 2 years it has been on air. A word of thanks also for the hard work that Henry has given for the new radio drama’s that have been broadcast over “Vintage Radio” in the last months. Proof again that the old master has not lost his touch. Henry we salute you!!! Frans Erasmus Johannesburg, South Africa 30 April 2004 PS: Radio Today 1485AM is available to listeners in the greater Johannesburg, West & East Rand and can be found on medium wave 1485. “Vintage Radio” can be heard every Thursday night between 19H00 & 20H00. |
