| | Radio Ballad No 2 - Song of a Road |
 | | The music is woven into the actuality in the style so characteristic of the Radio Ballads, but it's not until track 9 that the music appears to start dealing with the essential task of building the motorway. |  | | This is, no doubt, in part due to the fact that it was never released on LP format by Argo in the 1960s, unlike most of the other Radio Ballads. |  | | The most notable song of the Radio Ballad is Hot Asphalt (You can talk about your concrete
) sung by Seamus Ennis on track 19. |

 | | In 2006, BBC Radio 2 will broadcast six new Radio Ballads using the same format, with musical direction by John Tams, and contributions from Karine Polwart, Jez Lowe and Cara Dillon among others. |  | | It combines four elements of sound: songs, instrumental music, sound effects, and, most importantly, the recorded voices of those who are the subjects of the documentary. |  | | All eight radio-ballads were released on LP, and later on CD. |

| | Peggy Seeger & Ewan MacColl - The Radio Ballads |
 | | The traditional ballad, then, was to be the model for a narrative programme without narrators, caption voices or actors - a programme in which actuality recordings and songs and music written in the folk idiom would be interwoven. |  | | The songs in this Radio Ballad were meant to serve as compass-bearings on the journey from unconsciousness and delirium, and through the various degrees of returning consciousness, pain, rehabilitation and readjustment to life outside the polio ward. |  | | Charles Parker, a B.B.C. Midland Region radio producer, was a tape editor of enormous skill, a passionate advocate of the use of the tape recorder as a primary tool for recording history. |

 | | An album of songs recorded by Larner between 1959 and 1960 was issued as A Garland For Sam. |  | | The radio ballad became the basis for two albums - Now Is The Time For Fishing, released in 1961 and reissued in 1994, and Singing The Fishing. |  | | Larner's reputation as a folk singer spread until his tale was taken up by folksingers Ewan MacColl, Peggy Seeger and Charles Parker who used him as an inspiration for their radio ballad, "Singing The Fishing," in 1960. |

| | The Radio Ballads: a personal overview of the series |
 | | But they are radio ballads, and in radio ballads, the spoken message is underscored by the music. |  | | It was this latter realisation which led to the moulding of the radio ballad format, and which also caused the production team - Ewan MacColl, Charles Parker and Peggy Seeger - to thus christen the new genre. |  | | If you’ve never heard a radio ballad, if you’re staring at these words wondering what’s all the fuss about a few codgers retailing what they do for a living, extract the requisite sum from your life savings and buy Topic TSCD 803, Singing the Fishing. |

 | | Radio City, on the other hand, was recorded after a brief break-up - Chris Bell having left the band. |  | | What stops this album from being a bona fide classic is the verse-chorus-verse formula, and the three ending tracks that let the side down, meandering aimlessly in search of a focal point. |  | | Might as well nail my colours to the mast from the outset - if these albums were released individually, #1 Record would merit four stars, Radio City five - both are quite simply the two of the most important, powerful, varied, challenging and dynamic power-pop records ever released. |

 | | In 1957 he was commissioned by the BBC to write the first of eight 'radio ballads', a new form linking spoken actuality recordings and specially composed songs. |  | | Earlier, he had paid an important tribute to mining song culture in his collection of industrial ballads, Shuttle and Cage (also released as an LP record) and had worked for many years in association with the National Coal Board's film unit. |  | | It consists of special songs intermixed with actuality, radio ballad-style (following the suggestion of Betty Heathfield), and it's my opinion that the songs on the cassette represent some of Ewan's best work ever. |

 | | Next is the guitar atmosphere/horns-filled ballad of “Who Needs Information” that continues the story of Billy’s life with Benny that sounds like a typical 80s pop track with backup singers and powerful drums from Graham Broad. |  | | The final track in the album is “The Tide Is Turning (After Live Aid)” is a ballad about hope after the war but the music is kind of weak due to the 80s-like production of synthesizer and drum machines, which makes it a weak track. |  | | Waters later admits that the album was overproduced and he really tried to make an album with a commercial appeal with a modern sound full of synthesizers and drum machines which is used a lot in this record but sounds very stale. |

 | | They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier. |  | | The result was The Fight Game, an ironic allegory, drawing on the epic, echoing the fact that boxing was once the theme of many broadside ballads. |  | | In Parker's note for the Radio Times of 3 July 1963, he remarked: "The bout itself provides an immediately dramatic form, which lends itself admirably to radio-ballad treatment, while its essential contradiction - man, impersonally, against man - meant that we could use irony as never before." |
