Last Update: 07-Mar-2010 A Global British Comedy Collaborative document. Edited by Sandy Finlayson.
My Music was created by Tony Shryane and Edward J. Mason, who also created My Word for the BBC. The first show was recorded July 31st , 1966and broadcast January 3rd, 1967. The last show was recorded in November of 1993 and broadcast on January 24th, 1994. My Music was broadcast in Britain on the Home Service for the first season and then subsequently on Radio 4. It was also broadcast on the BBC World Service and made available to stations around the world via the BBC Transcription Service.
The panelists for the first eight seasons were Ian Wallace, Denis Norden, David Franklin and Frank Muir. David Franklin's last appearance before his death was broadcast on March 18th, 1973. He was replaced by John Amis, who made his first appearance January 1st, 1974.
My Music’s “Chairman” was Steve Race who also compiled the questions beginning with the seventh series in 1972. (For the first six series this task was carried out by Edward J. Mason.) My Music had four producers during its long run: Tony Shryane, Bobby Jaye, Pete Atkin and Richard Edis.
Broadcast dates in this catalog were taken from The Radio Times.[1] The repeat broadcast orders in Australia, and the US have been used as circumstantial evidence of the order of original broadcasts. This is a large assumption – we know there are vagaries in the BBC Transcription Service order as originally distributed, in the US distribution channel (WFMT FineArts), and in the broadcast stations in Australia and the US. While most of our recordings are those that were edited for foreign broadcast by the BBC Transcription Service, we do have a few of the original Home Service recordings and these are listed in the document. Shows that are waiting to be slotted into a specific series were originally divided into four main categories, based on changes in signature tune and cast. [2]
Series A: 1966-73 [First Signature tune [mellotron] with Ian Wallace, Denis Norden, Franklin & Frank Muir.]
Series B: 1974-75 [First Signature tune with Ian Wallace, Denis Norden, John Amis & Frank Muir.]
Series C: 1976-82 [Second Signature tune [3][brass] with Ian Wallace, Denis Norden, John Amis & Frank Muir.]
Series D: 1983-93 [Third Signature tune [piano] with Ian Wallace, Denis Norden, John Amis & Frank Muir.]
This is still very much ‘a work-in-progress’ and it almost certainly contains errors and internal inconsistencies so there will be changes made as the work proceeds. Take the information here as a guide rather than gospel. That is not to suggest that the research has been in any way sloppy or careless, just to emphasize that slotting a given episode into the series/edition framework is an imprecise science based on extrapolation and implication. Comments, suggestions and especially contributions of recordings are most welcome!

[1]
Thanks are due to Martin Hood for his work in researching the history of My
Music.
[2]
Since all unclassified episodes from the ‘A’, ‘B’ and C eras have now been
indentified, these categories are no longer in use.
[3]
The second My Music signature was first used in the BBC Transcription Service
recordings of series 11. The ‘Home
Service Broadcasts on Radio 4 began using it in the 12th series.
[4] The table of contents provides links to series and special editions of My Music for which we have holdings.
[5] Where the dates of
recordings are given in this document, these are taken from Steve Race’s
companion book, My Music.
[6] David
Rand’s researches have indicated that while My Music was not broadcast on this
date, it was broadcast in its
repeat slot on
[7] ABC Australia and BBC
Transcription Service episode numbering for this episode would place it as
being broadcast on 1968.01.10. I have chosen to place
it here since this places it closest to Christmas 1967 when it was most likely
broadcast.
[8] Episodes from ABC Australia are all broadcast in mono.
[9] BBC Transcription
Service episode numbering for this episode would place it as being broadcast on
[10] We
cannot be sure if the recording we hold is the 1972 edition of My Word – It’s
My Music, or the one broadcast a year later.
[11] See note 10
[12] See
note 10.
[13] First Mention in the Radio Times that the Questions were compiled by Steve Race. The program credits indicate that Steve Race began setting the questions at the start of Series 7.
[14]
While we do
not have the full version of this program in our holdings, we do have two
edited versions. We have the version which was broadcast on
[15] This is an edited
version of the program that was originally broadcast on
[16] The
HS version of this program states that it is the first of the series. This
indicates that the order of BBC TS recordings was incorrect at this point.
[17] This episode
marks the first use of the second My Music signature tune in the BBC TS
version. The Home Service version of the
program [broadcast on
Radio 4] began using the second signature tune at the start of the twelth series.
[18]
The original broadcast
order of episodes for Season 12 is in doubt. Both ABC Australia and the US
Broadcasts of the series began with what we know was episode 22 and then later
returned to episode 1, which was recorded at the Cheltenham International Festival of Music. A further anomaly is
that ABC Austalia skipped two BBC
Transcription numbers when they last broadcast this series in 2002. The
ordering of episodes in this series is therefore speculative and can only be
confirmed if original recordings of the ‘Home Service’ broadcasts emerge.
