therealhantsram Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Showing my age here...I remember back in 1984 for the Rams centenary, Radio Derby did an awesome documentary series, I think it was called the Derby County Story. I think it may have updated and re-aired for the 125th anniversary. Does anyone know if a copy is available to buy anywhere. Would love the hear that again. I have a feeling RD sold copies on cassette (remember them?) at the time it first aired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richinspain Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I had a copy of that cassette. Unfortunately I lent it to a work mate who soon after got the sack. The only time I saw him after that he was working in the little chef in Long Eaton when I was on my way to the airport to come over here to live. Obviously he didn't have the cassettes with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell Ram Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I have the Radio Derby 1996 story of a season somewhere on cassette. I wrote to Colin Gibson I remember to ask him where I could get a copy as I missed it when it aired on the radio. I think I bought it from Radio Derby reception! Shame Radio Derby cannot create a Derby County online archive where they can have this sort of stuff and add to it over the years. Sure there will be a demand.

I guess complex licensing rights mean it would never happen though. The BBC should make all their local output available as open source/freeware. I'm sure there's masses of local news and documentary content that would be a treasure trove for local historians and really has no monetary value as licensable content.

Inverurie Ram Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 University of Lincoln (MACE) Media Archive for Central England is also great for old footage on Derby and Derby County Football Club etc.I gave them about 74 VHS Derby County Football Club video tapes a couple of years ago as they were just taking up space in the loft.http://www.lincoln.ac.uk/home/mace/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Harford Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Can't help with the OP I'm afraid. But does anyone remember the promotion to Division One tape that RD produced?Started with something like this by Graham Richards"Stand up all of you who were at the Victoria ground Hartlepool 'we are the champions chant' who were at Bristol Rovers and Stoke 'we are the champions' because we are back, Derby County founder members of teh Football League are back where we belong"Single cassette, was brilliant and reviewed that season.

Woodypecker Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Just seen this topic - and scuttled upstairs to my DCFC vault to retrieve my copy.I'm holding my original 2-cassette Limited Edition (No. 170!) of Radio Derby 269's 'The Derby County Story', released in 1985. Written by Anthony Rippon, compiled & produced by Ashley Franklin and narrated by Mike Ingham.The detailed insert in the (DVD-style) case lists the story in 15 parts, from pre-Bloomer to Stuart Webb saving the club in 1984. I seem to think we have it on tape or CD from ye olde radio broadcasts, too - perhaps with the 'update' parts.I have the capacity to transfer direct from cassette to mp3, so must get round to it! Then it can be copied to CD, of course.I don't expect the club or Radio Derby's ability to resurrect and republish the Story is any easier these days (due to copyright/ownership of material, as already noted) but perhaps this request could be raised as a 'suggestion to the club?'It's an important heritage recording. Happy to liaise with those who want to PM me about getting an mp3 transfer sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomBustler1884 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Has anybody spoken to the chaps at the DCFC Collection? They have tonnes of stuff, might be worth making sure they have copies of these recordings too if any of you can provide them with copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
