Alternative Realities Part Two | 4

This episode hears some amazing stories behind the 1980s charity singles, the rise of Mary Black and why Whitney Houston couldn’t top the Irish charts. We hear how a Ramone’s legend came to influence the Irish scene, the Waterboys ended up drinking whiskey and feeding lambs (at the same time), and why the Stunning’s tour manager felt compelled to assault a member of Blur. Up north, how Cher cheated death and the terror reason why Banarama gigs were cancelled. This podcast is hosted by Róisín O, and produced by Headstuff. Hosted on Acast.
