I think this has been raised before but I can't find the thread. Does anyone know how many Stones songs were played on Theme Time Radio and what they were? I was reading that the most played artists were Tom Waits and Dinah Washington with 10 songs each. I can remember Dear Doctor, Neighbours, Ruby Tuesday, Happy and Rice Krispies (assuming that can be classified as a song). I think there may have been others-Paint it Black maybe? Grateful for any help

Also for those downunder I can recall Dylan playing two Oz songs on the show-Band played Waltzing Matilda and, believe it or not, Tie me kangaroo down sport (the original, politcally incorrect version as well!). Anymore??

While I am at it someone might be able to clear up a query-some book I have suggests that Rolf Harris actually opened for the Stones in Oz in 65 or 66. is this correct?

Thanks in anticipation

Hope thats of some use.


Rolf doesnt seem to have been an opening act on the two Stones tours down under in '65 and '66.

That said, it does mention there were different
local support acts' added to the bill in each city in 1965.

Would need to check James Karnbach's book, as its pretty good re: support acts


Rolf actually did cover 'Satisfaction' though! :

although he never did 'get' the Stones :

Thanks gazza-great help. Rolf & the Stones would have been surreal

actually it was the karnbach book that suggests Rolf Harris supported them-I know it's usually pretty accurate but i'm not sure this time

I always liked the idea of those theme radio shows by Bob Dylan.
Do you know a source where to download them?

Here's a link to download all the shows:
