Hideaway (Cockney Rebel song)
"Hideaway" is a song by British rock band Cockney Rebel, fronted by Steve Harley. The song was released as the opening album track on the band's debut The Human Menagerie in 1973. In 1974 it was released in Denmark as a single.
Background
Though it had been a hit in Europe, the band's debut single "Sebastian" had failed to enter the UK chart. The following year of 1974 proved to be a breakthrough when "Judy Teen" entered the UK Top 5. With both singles showing success in Europe, EMI followed "Judy Teen" with the release of "Hideaway", albeit in Denmark only. Neither Harley or the band had any input regarding the release of the single.
Like the entire album, "Hideaway" would have been recorded in June/July 1973 in Air Studios, London. At that time the studios were located in Oxford Street above a department store.
Release
The single was released in Denmark via EMI Records on 7" vinyl. The single included the b-side "Loretta's Tale" which was written by Harley, and also taken from The Human Menagerie. The release featured a black-and-white picture sleeve, which featured a photograph of the band.
Heart Hampshire
Heart Hampshire (formerly Ocean FM and Ocean Sound) was a British independent local radio station serving South Hampshire, West Sussex and the Isle of Wight primarily for Portsmouth, Winchester and Southampton. The station served an area of England with a high proportion of commuters to London and a higher-than-average disposable income from middle-class families and people over 45. Its target age range was 25-45.
History
Ocean Sound's predecessor, Radio Victory provided the first local commercial radio service in the South of England in 1975, with its small transmission area around Portsmouth. The station was disliked by the then regulator and when it Independent Broadcasting Authority re-advertised the Portsmouth licence to include Southampton and Winchester, Victory lost out to a new consortium called Ocean Sound Ltd. Ocean Sound proposed an expanded coverage area taking in Southampton. Radio Victory ceased operations in June 1986, three months earlier than the expiry date of its franchise, with a test transmission informing listeners of the unprecedented situation. Ocean Sound took over programme provision that October from a new purpose-built broadcast unit in a business park at Segensworth West on the western outskirts of Fareham, Hampshire.

Launching
Heart began broadcasting on 6 September 1994, as 100.7 Heart FM being the UK's third Independent Regional Radio station, five days after Century Radio and Jazz FM North West. The first song to be played on 100.7 Heart FM was "Something Got Me Started", by Simply Red. Its original format of "soft adult contemporary" music included artists such as Lionel Richie, Simply Red and Tina Turner. Reflecting this, its early slogan was 100.7 degrees cooler!.
Heart 106.2 began test transmissions in London in August 1995, prior to the station launch on 5 September. The test transmissions included live broadcasts of WPLJ from New York.
The Heart programming format was modified in 1996. The new format saw the "soft" AC music replaced with a generally more neutral Hot AC music playlist.
