04Playlist Notes
What was the first song you played on repeat?
'Start' by The Jam
A song from your favourite album?
'When Ye Go Away' by The Waterboys on 'Fisherman's Blues'
Song you wish you had written / Music icon that has inspired you?
This Monkey's Gone to Heaven by the Pixies, and Frank Black while we're on The Pixies. He can scream about driving cars into oceans and other worlds while making it all sound so cuttingly personal.
Four artists you can’t stop listening to right now?
E=mc2 - Big Audio Dynamite
Never fails to lift the spirits this, I listen to it like an antidote.
Octopussy -The Wedding Present
'Take off your clothes and lie down over there!' Shrieks an anxious Dave Gedge. Been in love with this forever.
Wooden Bag - Richard Dawson
I was halfway across the kitchen listening to the radio thinking 'what's this ****!', when I woke up 2 minutes later, still there, heart broken. That's what this did.
Closing Shot - Lindstrom
I can't stop listening to it, it's a banger.
