Just listened to Mark's appearance on the podcast: fantastic, what an insight into East Berlin and ex communist countries. Completely agree Mark, music is fundamental to most/all of us.👍✊🎵🎶

They say, "Don't drink alcohol. You gotta know what you look like (Oh!) before you go out. Know. Look. Look..."

But I say, "Get it down yer neck."

"Orgasm Addict" is the debut single by the British punk rock band Buzzcocks, released on this day in 1977.

The song was controversial due to its sexual content and was banned by the BBC

From formative nights at Eric’s and early encounters with The Fall, to coming up with one of post-punk’s most poetic band names and introducing Julian Cope to Scott Walker. We chat post‑punk tribes, unexpected fame in the Philippines, and a memorable meeting with Paul McCartney.

Great listen again from the Oh Brother podcast - Jim Glennie from James tells us how nicking drinks led to a fortuitous meeting with singer Tim Booth, how Chesney Hawkes probably is the nicest man in pop and how a van full of vegetarians has it’s issues #fallfriday
