Deb Grant sits in with music, chat and Tubular Bells

Deb Grant presents a feast of great music and chat, and celebrates the 50th anniversary of Mike Oldfield’s 1973 album ‘Tubular Bells’.

Deb Grant presents a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today, she celebrates the 50th anniversary of Mike Oldfield’s seminal album 'Tubular Bells', which was released on 25th May 1973. The first album to be released on Virgin Records, it wasn’t until its opening theme was used on the soundtrack of The Exorcist that it gained worldwide recognition. Deb plays a couple of her favourite tracks from the album and discusses its legacy.

With a host of quality radio items including 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs - and ‘Tea Time Theme Time’, where we ask listeners to guess the link between three top tunes.

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
