This week’s show had an American flavour as we recalled when David Letterman interviewed Warren Zevon, when a member of the E Street Band and his toupee became a gangster, and when John Foggerty scared the bejesus out of the crowd at Woodstock.
We also found out in no uncertain terms that The Modfather is no fan of The Cure, and how not many people were a fan of The Buddha Of Suburbia. Plus, we remembered dear Lemmy and when Michael Hutchence’s rocked.
This weeks show also featured some cover versions, well, quite a few really. Plus I stumped you with lyrics from the Stray Cats, and when an alien from outer space and The Boomtown Rats both had #1 records.
If somehow you missed this two hours of radio ear candy being broadcast live, please don’t fret about it. Enjoy every sandwich and just click on the link below, and you can listen to a cool for ‘pod cats’ version of Tuesday night’s show.
