Everyone said we were crazy, and now here we are! Annabel and Callum are back out of lockdown to boogie down with the biggest songs in the nation as voted by you, the listener. We were super blessed to have Dr. Jonathan Pearce LIVE in the studio to share his chart analysis and hot takes at every track; Callum shared his second radio documentary, this week debriefing the 48 hour film competition; and Annabel told Jon all about his Kilchoman single malt in this week's Whisky Business. And that’s how the Top Ten is done.
This week's show featured some britpop, funk, soul and more. Sam also paid tribute to British blues legend John Mayall and Four Tops OG Duke Fakir who died last week.
Mookie, Buzzy and Benny jam two hours of punk and metal with Alex playing us records from Singapore, Thailand and Japan, plus the usual shit talk, gig news etc.
This week's show featured faves from Mysticwood & Mezcal, Benefits, Saint Etienne, Munk & Kapote, Daniel Monaco Band and what I think was a well-timed Primal Scream critique of US imperialism - pretty much airing at the same time ex-The Wire host Chlöe Swarbrick was calling out the government's spineless approach to the genocide we see happening in Gaza every damn day.
On today's episode it all got a lil chaotic in the studio. We still managed to hold it all together though, with the help of some fine tuneage from Saint Etienne, Dominique Dumont, Keanu Nelson, Kiki Hitomi and Speng Bond to name just a few.
