“Fred Flange”, Barry Cryer meets the Pretenders and what we’ve learnt about the Velvet Underground

“Fred Flange”, Barry Cryer meets the Pretenders and what we’ve learnt about the Velvet Underground

Länge: 50:22
This week’s trawl of the rock and roll outer limits alights, among others, on the following sizzling hot topics …
 
... a lost Beatles tape and the night they played Stowe School 60 years ago.
 
… the return of the Stackwaddy game: were there really ‘60s New Zealand pop groups called the Chapta, Hi-Revving Tongues and the Kal-Q-Lated Risk?
 
… Todd Haynes’ brilliant Velvet Underground documentary and how the band spawned pop’s greatest look- and sound-alike movement. And could Lou Reed have made it without Andy Warhol, John Cale or Nico?
 
… Tracie, Bowie, Bonnie Tyler, Tracey Ullman, the JoBoxers, Kenny Everett and other top-notch components of the singles chart in April ‘83.
 
… did A Hard Day’s Night invent the word “grotty” and Steely Dan the word “scam”?
 
… who was the mysterious “Fred Flange”? The story of the Goons, George Martin , Peter Sellers and Matt Monro.  
 
… … and birthday guest Al Hearton remembers records you’d heard about before you heard them – eg Don’t Fear the Reaper, Bat Out Of Hell, Mother’s Little Helper, Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite and Eve Of Destruction.

Beschreibung

Mark Ellen and David Hepworth have been talking about and writing about music together and individually for a collective eighty years in magazines like Smash Hits, Mojo and The Word and on radio and TV programmes like "Rock On", "Whistle Test" and VH-1.
Over thirteen years ago, when working on the late magazine The Word, they began producing podcasts. Some listeners have been kind enough to say these have been very special to them. When the magazine folded in 2012 they kept the spirit of those podcasts alive in regular Word In Your Ear evenings in which they spoke to musicians and authors in front of an audience. 
Over these years they've produced hundreds of hours of material. As of the Current Unpleasantness of 2020, they've produced yet hundreds of hours more with a little help from guests kind enough to digitally show them around their attics such as Danny Baker, Andy Partridge, Sir Tim Rice and Mark Lewisohn.
