Episode 23: Owen Harris
MP3, 31m36s, 28.9MB, first broadcast 1 August 2009
When you think of an archetypal bFM DJ in the late 80s and early 90s, you think of a character very much like Owen 'The Jackal' Harris; a dedicated musical omnivore who would go hungry rather than pass up on buying records. Buying LOTS of records. Owen also was partly responsible for the world's first-ever documentary series on Split Enz, as well as frequently hosting The "surprise" and "special" parts of 95bFM programming, focussing on one artist, label, or era. He has been a resident of the USA this century, where he works for the space program (we think).
