In his latest On Air in Suffolk column, broadcaster Stephen Foster recalls a memorable trip to cover the Chicago Blues Festival.
1990 was a key year in my radio career. After eight very happy years at Radio Orwell and Saxon Radio I suddenly found myself at a crossroads and I’m not talking about the junction where Crown Street meets Museum Street and High Street.
The new owners of Suffolk’s two commercial stations were understandably keen to freshen up the output and I soon realised my face and voice didn’t really fit anymore. As far as I knew I wasn’t about to lose my job but I was told that if I was planning to hang around then I’d be moved down the schedule.
