The world’s rarest records and the sartorial splendour of the satin tour jacket
The dazzling super trouper of gentle enquiry is trained this week upon:-
Our recent encounter with John Lydon – his high viz shirt, his smoking habit and his usefully commercial righteous indignation about the upcoming Danny Boyle-directed ‘Pistol’ TV series.
Why Spinal Tap was a blessing and a curse for their real-life drummer Ric Parnell (RIP).
The magnificent bucolic frolic held in the memory of the Old Grey Whistle Test producer Mike Appleton.
The sad fate of Jackie Wilson.
The “pleasant illness” of record collecting.
Musicians who died onstage.
Why comedians might start to need bodyguards
The curious meaning of a “stone fox chase”.
