Jim Richman - Satellite from 2001
We've had a number correspondents who know a 'Jim Richman' said to have modelled himself on Radio London's Earl Richmond & stated he spent a short time on the Fredericia in 1967
Example:
I just noticed on the "Caroline Roll Call" (21/9/10) a reference
to Jim Richman. He first came to my attention some years ago through an interview
in Offshore Echos. He claimed to be Jim Gordon and worked on the Fredericia
in 1965. However there were certain things that did not ring true. The Jim
Gordon that we all remember from Caroline North was the Australian Guy Blackmore,
who only worked on the station after the MOA. He also stated that he worked
alongside the likes of Stevie Gee. Again this chap was on the South ship after
the MOA and never served on the Fredericia. There are statements to the effect
saying he worked on the Fredericia AND the Mi Amigo and claims he read the
news for Tony Blackburn and Johnnie Walker. Johnny didn't join Caroline until
October 1966, some months after Jim's supposed departure. A case of mistaken
identity or pure fantasy as others have said - Name supplied to Ed
