In this week’s show we recall how Malcom McClaren flogged a dead horse when Sid Vicious took over the vocals for the Pistols.
We played an Ian Dury classic that became proverb and a pseudonym for a West Ham cult hero, and something new from local Essex based songwriters Warwick & Young. We commemorated the last gig from The Faces and remembered John Denver, along with The Temptations co-founder Melvin Franklin plus a classic album release from The Dame.
We tested your musical knowledge on lyrics from David Byrne, and in what year did American soul singer Freda Payne & Midge Uuuuuuuurrrrreeee both have #1 records.
If you want to know what it was like? You can be an adventurous type by clicking on the link below, to listen to the cool for ‘pod cats’ version of Tuesday night’s show.
