PRESENTER  PROFILE: RICHARD  BISMARCK

Much has been said about Richard Bismarck, though none of it here. Another member of the squad who started out presenting Programmes from his bedroom with an ancient Meccano set and a couple of bits of wire, Mr. Bismarck moved on to Student Radio in Loughborough, joining up with the likes of Messrs. Barclay and Mueslibar to bring chaos to the murky lives of the local populace.  In more recent times he has worked in France (Radio 6), Holland (Radio Stad Harlingen), various RSL Offshore Broadcasts in the south of England (Radio Caroline), and of course presenting many recent Programmes, both 'live' and pre-recorded for The Album Zone. His love of bizarre holiday locations sets him apart from the rest of the AZ crew, and his recent invites to "come along !" to the rest of us to both the Faroe Islands and then to Iceland fell on deaf ears, or, deliberately closed ears anyway. He is a big fan of 'Real Ale', because someone has to be. His obsessions include Bjork, and Women who drink Pints. His ambition is to "tidy the kitchen".
