Countdown radio promo
Title:
Countdown radio promo
NFSA ID
530431
Year
1975
Digitised through the NFSA’s audiotape preservation efforts, this radio promo for a March 1975 episode captures Countdown’s early high-energy promotional style.
Unlike the familiar Brian May-composed theme, this spot uses a 1970 English rock library track. The actual episode it promoted (episode 12) is now believed lost.
The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia acknowledges Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live and gives respect to their Elders both past and present.
