History

John Public has presented Black Echoes since late 1982. In the beginning the show centred on many forms of black music but by 1984 it had concentrated solely on reggae music. The show was broadcast on numerous pirate stations based in South Dublin during the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s, until he got a slot on Dublin City FM. The last pirate John Public was with was Jazz FM.

Miss Pat joined the programme as producer in 1985 having moved from London, where she grew up listening to all styles of Jamaican music. Since then the programme has incorporated ska, shuffle, rock steady, early reggae, Mento etc., as well as DJ, dub, dub poetry and ragga.

In 2008, the show moved its slot from 8-9 pm to 9-10 pm due to schedule changes which include Little Steven's Underground Garage a syndicated show broadcast on various radio stations across the world. In July, 2009 the show changed its time slot again to 7:30-9:00 pm,changing again from 7.00-9.00 pm in October 2015.
