I'm excited to present this program, which was curated by a friend of a friend out in Vancouver last weekend. I love how the world is sometimes small. I was an avid NME reader back then. Researching through her recommendations was a blast (from the past). I hope you'll enjoy it!

Hi Anne-Marie, thanks for the shout-out, looking forward to the show. A minor correction: The Diodes introduced themselves to the London music scene without my help - I merely introduced them to the author of the definitive book on punk, England’s Dreaming. Jon Savage subsequently included interviews with John and Paul in the book. And altho’ I love fortuitous errors, it’s ’Trampled’ not ‘Tramped’ .Finally, did you get my postscript from Erin - feat. Yello, Cowboys International, Throbbing Gristle and others?

So glad you're tuning in, Adair!! Corrections noted! Yes to all those suggestions. I will likely have a Part II to this!

Hi Anne Marie, lovely intro, thank you. But the Human League track I selected was ‘Empire State Human’ a very early techno track. ‘Human’ was much later and mainstream! I fault my handwriting!

Anne-Marie Brugger (host)
I didn't think that one fit in so well. Haha! I had a bit of trouble with your handwriting. All good!

Hey, Anne-marie, how bout some Thomas Dolby as a special request for next week? This show is reminding me of him, and that sound he fit in... à very brilliant underrated artist

Anne-Marie Brugger (host)
Thanks Bobby! Yes, I can certainly bring in some Thomas Dolby. Great idea!

Yes, California’s buried geniuses, The Sleepers. ‘Forever’ is the track that will take you where only Joy Division fear to tread.

Love it! Thanks for co-hosting virtually, Adair. This has been fun! Hope you can join us again next Wednesday.

Here's a quiz question for your listeners next week: what band is responsible for one of the deathlessly great lyrics of the period - 'Time flies/and time crawls/like an insect/up and down the walls'. Name that track and hopefully Anne-Marie will play it (not on current list of suggestions)!
