Good point,I would rather the music evolved than stagnate,even if I may not be totally sold on the resulting direction.I have been hearing more of that UKG flavour in [funky] house tunes recently,so my ears have been diverted away for a while. I will have to pay attention to some other DJs...

In some ways the inclusion of an Irish Jig was the bravest choice he made.It was NOT cool [or particualy safe] to be of Irish origin in London at the time.With the threat of IRA bombing in the air Irish people were treated with hostility and suspicion as well as having their cultural activities...

I would be happy if it got to be a 7 days a week thing.You can always catch it when you can and dip into the highlights at a later date.Their art is being crafted by doing these sets,so the more the better.Most of the pirates have been 'Grime Free' for too long and there is a real demand out...

I've got no doubt that Rotten loves to 'throw a spanner in the works' so to speak and The Pistols could have ended up sounding like an edgier Faces without his imput.Fine [and for the time brave] though the selection was,I do feel that some of his choices were a quirky take on established...

I think if anything,McClaren has a keener ear than Rotten.Dont forget that McClaren managed the 'Pre Punk' group The New York Dolls before the Pistols.He then assembled an english band who sounded a lot like them and Rotten joined as vocalist.Back in New York he dabbled in Hip Hop wilth the...

I am hurting to get my hands on that vinyl.''Gully Brook'' is this years ''Request Line'' in terms of it being a track that bridges the Dubstep/Grime divide.I hope it crosses over on a broader scale in the way that Skream's track did. I had a listen to Hatcha's show on Kiss last night for the...

Willie Dixon was the in house producer at Chess records.He was smart enough to claim composers credit for a great deal of songs that were traditional in origin or written by other people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willie_Dixon ''David Johansen tells a story about how Dixon used to offer...

That was really funny! I have never had time for Scott Walker.Bailey has him sussed.A rewrite of ''The Windmills Of You Mind'' with even more pretentious lyrics.Spot on! Scott Walker is not fit to lick the shoes of the mighty Jack Jones and untill he writes a song about doing just that,I will...
