Any links to share? I listened to the reggae shows on Capital (TV on Reggae) and Radio London (Steve Barnard) back in the early 70s. Derek Jewell used to play some reggae back then on his Radio 3 show (Sounds Interesting) too.

Mainstream R1 (which started in 1968 apparently) used to play reggae all the time even if station head Douglas Muggeridge couldn't pronounce it the word. There were times between 1969-71 when nearly half the records in the Top 20 were reggae.
