Playing Big Word Song (I believe) at 0025 with a noisy S5 signal.

Abnormal indeed;
"I'm A Wanker" at 0030z.
0032z: "The Ferby"
0036Z: "Spam Song"

Was the DJ's name Guy P Hawkin? sounded like that at 0056z.

Thanks jFarley I have to agree now it did sound like Guy P Falcon, I was close wrong bird.

0028 UTC Song-"I'm a Wanker"
0031 UTC Man announcer with previous songs played and next song..."another English recording....Star Trek ?"
(Signal has been a steady S7 with a fair amount of band noise and some pesky on LSB...best here using USB)

0036 UTC Monty Python's "Spam" skit
0039 UTC Parody of REM-Stand In the Place Where You Live" (Wierd Al Yankovich)

0047 UTC Song? that started out with dogs howling, then scary deep voiced growling singer...don't know quite what to make of this! :o
0051 UTC Man announcer with mention of "Food for Thought", rundown of last songs played, "Voice of the Abnormal" Id, then "The abnormality will continue."
0052 UTC Piano tune with man singing some really lame lyrics!
0056 UTC Man announcer ...."Nice little ballad there", followed by "Voice of the Abnormal" ID
0058 UTC Monty Python skit... Mr. Fixit-"how to hit the nail on the head"
0100 UTC Man announcer ID'd last skit, "Voice of the Abnormal...wind things down and go away..."Guy P Falcon?
0101 UTC The Fart Song
0104 UTC Some British gents chatting, then OFF at 0106 UTC

SIO 444 in central md.  First good rx of a pirate show here on the 7600gr w/ a grundig portable longwire.  The pcr1000/h-800 combo isn't hearing squat...have to check the battery on the antenna amp and/or the coax.  Thought the rg-174/u was thin enough to squeeze through the weatherstrip....maybe not.....

Caught a fine signal from The Voice of the Abnormal.  Strong and clear on 6925 with an ID at 0051 UTC.  Here's a video of the ID.  Thanks for playing Monty Pythons "Spam", and the Weird Al "Spam" song!!

Very nice!  Since this was an old show, do you think this was a relay or the actual station coming back?

Tuned in at roughly 0046 and... whoa!  I wasn't entirely sure what to make of the craziness I heard.  Couple that with trying to get an exact lock on the frequency I needed, and I was a bit creeped out for a minute there, no offense to the op.  Caught the 'abnormality will continue' bit, the DJ's name Guy T. Falcon?, and a probable Abnormal Radio or Radio Abnormal ID.  Into one odd piano and voice tune before I tuned away.
