REDIFFUSION SINGAPORE - 60s Music Pal

With transistor radios, music became portable early but there was one special station which broadcast 24 hours a day. It was cheap to invest in one and the subscription didn't deter anyone from getting 'the box'.

REDIFFUSION became the craze then and the box was seen everywhere. By the 60s Larry Lai, Tan Swee Leong, Tan Hock Lye and Eric Lim became household names.

But was the station playing our own originals in the 60s? Your turn. (Picture shows the Rediffusion Office at Clemenceau Avenue, Singapore.)
