About this deal

The Old Grey Whistle Test played a crucial role in launching the careers of countless artists. From emerging British acts like Roxy Music and Kate Bush to international stars like David Bowie and Stevie Wonder, the show provided a platform for these musicians to reach a wider audience. Ourground-breaking recycled t-shirts are made from 100% recycled materials and are, to our knowledge, the first commercially produced t-shirts made from recycled cotton. The fabrics are produced in India from 60% recycled organic cotton and 40% recycled polyester. The cotton waste from normal production is saved ("salvaged") and shredded until broken into individual fibres. These are then blended with locally recycled polyester and spun into yarn. The knitting, dying and manufacturing are carried out in established facilities in Tamil Nadu, renowned for high ethical labour standards and low environmental impact. These products are certified under the Global Recycle Standard (GRS) and the Organic Content Standard (OCS), and carry the appropriate certification marks, licensed by the Control Union

All shirts are sent standard Royal Mail 2nd class (in the UK) and standard Airmail for everywhere else. Spain, Italy, Russia, Far East and South America are all sent recorded delivery.

The show's title, derived from a quote by British composer George Butterworth, hinted at its focus on music that stood the test of time. Williams's philosophy was simple yet profound: if a song could withstand a listener's initial reaction and still sound good after repeated listens, it had passed the "old grey whistle test." At RedMolotov.com we specialise in producing high-quality, ethically-sourced t-shirts. We pride ourselves in using the best materials we can find, which is why our t-shirts will not fall out of shape after a few washes like other cheaper varieties you may find for sale elsewhere. The program's intimate studio setting and focus on live performances created a unique atmosphere that captured the essence of the music and the performers. Williams's engaging interviews with the artists added another layer of depth, providing insights into their creative process and musical influences.

The Old Grey Whistle Test's impact on British music culture is undeniable. The show is fondly remembered for its commitment to quality music and its willingness to showcase a wide range of genres. It has also been credited with helping to launch the careers of many of the most influential musicians of the past few decades. PLEASE NOTE: In some European countries you may be asked to pay a surcharge to receive your parcel.The show's legacy lives on in its archives, which offer a treasure trove of live performances and interviews from some of the most iconic musicians of the 1970s and 1980s. For music lovers of all generations, the Old Grey Whistle Test remains a source of inspiration and enjoyment, a testament to the power of great music to transcend time and genre. The Old Grey Whistle Test, hosted by the affable and knowledgeable broadcaster Richard Williams, was a departure from the mainstream pop shows of the time.
