We kicked off the show with a spot of David Lee Roth's ‘Shoo Bop’ and rejoiced in the rediscovery of snotty party punks Be Your Own Pet’s front woman Jemina Pearl’s brand new project, Ultras S/C.
This week’s themed playlist heralded our great, great prog fathers with all their psyche and sprawling sounds skill as we celebrated the fortieth anniversary of the release of Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’. We were thinking more Nick Drake with ‘Pink Moon’ than any Dream Theatre delights or Rush jam outs as we pulled together a whole host of Pink Floyd inspired greats.
But it wasn’t all witticisms and offbeat numbers that made it onto the airwaves though, oh no. We had a whole wealth of new music lined up from the angular pop hooks of Concrete Knives to the exotic and eclectic sounds of Stereo Total as they ponder, ‘Qu’est ce que tu veux?’
Tune in Weds 7-9pm @hoxtonradio It's hammer time!
