There's usually a listen again on 6Music.

Certainly hope so, as I'm busy with my father-in-law's estate this weekend, and won't get to hear it.

Hope it goes well, John...

Thanks for info, Rob.

Can anyone recording it ?

Listening now - and the show also features an OMD Peel session from 1983...

Yeah I found it on iplayer & John comes on around 1hr 42.

John is the subject of the It's My Party feature, in which Liz Kershaw invites a special guest to reveal their three party tracks and fantasy guests...

Thanks for the link on that one Rob & Martin

For those interested - and who wouldn't be?? - here is a link to the incredible Leigh Bowery event (Wigstock 1993) that John refers to.

Shocking? Entertaining?
Pretty amazing either way - but perhaps not for the faint-hearted

Leigh Bowery was bl**dy incredible. Still fascinating and still unrivalled for shock, cheek and out there originality, sacrificial art and challenging concepts.
Both hands on the handle of the mad/sane door...

Have a looksie through some of the other clips on youtube as well.

Bowery just... is

Great that he mentioned Joe Meek too - I'd posted about him a few ago here .

Satie a nice choice too. Class.

Surprised he didn't mention Ballard, but I suppose there are so many to choose from.
