Baker stars on another top podcast

Anyone who enjoyed the Candyman's recent visit to Word towers and musing on where they might find any other podcasts even 50 per cent as erudite is hereby directed to Nostalgia For The Future, wherein the BBC London man talks to host Billy Reeves about his love for Tony Newley, Hieronymous Merkin and all.
It's always a good listen. I feel sure that the massive would also appreciate the episode with ace sessioneer turned samnple-clearing musicologist Ivan Chandler, and the Before They Were Famous instalment starring, um, me.

thanks Martin
another for my archive. Looking forward to hearing your one too.
I see Anthony Newley Sings The Ultimate Love Story Just For You
gets a passing mention.
As it did during an hillarious episode on the old Radio 1 show in the mid 90s:

Danny Baker is a thing of beauty...
...and a joy for ever, even if he once wore massive specs. If he existed purely in voice form only, I would surely bum him.
Thankee Martin
just d/l now
Billy Reeves
Top man is Billy. He is also BBC London's radio correspondent following Brentford FC - the greatest team in London- as well as doing shifts on their travel desk.
A very snappy dresser too by all accounts. He is on Twitter as, not unsurprisingly, billyreeves.
Lent an ear this morning
Superb stuff - I'll be downloading others, although will have to convert to MP3 as my player doesn't recognise MP4.
