Another bumper episode for you pod fans. This week Comedian and radio presenter John Robins lets us into his personal archive of Phonographic Memories. John talks honestly and openly about being an odd kid, finding his tribe and falling head over heals for Americana. This is a really charming interview where John shares his vulnerability and passion for music. Some really deep choices here from a man who has deep feelings for the music in his life.We also share two brilliant features about two simply brilliant books! First up we talk top Cherie Percy about the latest edition in the much heralded 33&1/3 book series which explores important albums with style and wit. Cherie takes on the underground sensation of ESG and reveals all about this mysterious New York funk band that captured the heart of Martin Hannet at Factory Records and the minds of countless Hip Hop heads who have sampled their music. It's a brilliant topic treated with the respect and love it deserves. We also take a trip to Berlin in the capable hands of Paul Hanford who opens up this infamous city to all with his excellent tome 'Coming to Berlin'. Paul is a delight to talk to and brings his passion for Berlin into focus for us.Away from all that our heroes Deb and Eamon discuss the 2Tone documentary 'Dance Crazy' on its newly remastered release.Please spread the word about the pod, that is all we ask!John Robins:https://www.johnrobins.com/Cherie Percy's ESG Bookhttps://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/esgs-come-away-with-esg-9781501379192/Let Paul Hanford show you around Berlinhttps://boomkat.com/products/coming-to-berlin@whatgoespod Hosted on Acast.
