Enjoyed the Robyn Hitchcock song that flowed into The Higsons 👌 - sadly I've missed Robyn Hitchcock every time he has played here

Steve Kirkland (host)
Heavy Ben! Hola! Looking forward to tuning in to your John Cale show(s)... a lifetime favourite and totally godlike musical figurehead!

Shiv & gang put some new lyrics into that, or is just me hearing them? I think it's them, don't think Shanya would...

7:29 PM, March 9th, 2024
Steve Kirkland (host)
... careful (I should talk, eh?) what you put past Shania, Benoît

7:33 PM, March 9th, 2024
Benoît
Some of the words in the song, "fuck your car", "you think you're Strombo", etc.

Benoît
Ah, Elton John as I used to listen to him a very long time ago. Tumbleweed Connection, like, if not exactly.
