40 years old this week (I’d say today but that was a Friday and records were released on a Monday in the UK in 1985). ABC’s How To Be A Zillionaire. It’s a pop masterpiece and still sounds ruddy ace.

Loved doing this show with such fantastic company and the new (& last, blub) Saint Etienne album is a splendid thing. Give us (& it) a listen by tapping below. 60 minutes well spent.

Of all the things that have happened to us in 35 years, hearing Winona Ryder say Saint Etienne "totally rescued me while I was going through a hard time" is up there. Bless her. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfjX...

It was 40 years ago today… I was sat in the back of a Vauxhall Cavalier, returning from the family holiday in Devon listening to Live Aid on the radio. My lovingly preserved copy of Ver Hits now my trusty guide as I work my way through the BBC2 repeat…

A few days off & a pile of books to enjoy. First off & finished already is @wadeywade.bsky.social 1984 The Year When Pop Went Queer. An engaging cultural history lesson showing how pop pushed back against 1980s prejudice & homophobia. With a banging playlist to boot. Highly recommended.

RIP Brian Wilson, one of the best to ever do it. He was haunted by how good “Be My Baby” by the Ronettes is and he was right to be.
