Mark Ellen, coming to a radio near you...
Anyone close to a radio this afternoon is advised to tune in to BBC Radio 4's The Music Group at 1.30pm, and enjoy Alexei Sayle discussing Kurt Weill's Threepenny Opera, the fantastic Sue Perkins on Jimi Hendrix (extremely entertaining) and THE WORD's Mark Ellen - almost inevitably - on The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band.








Clarification Please
Therer's been confusion lately at the BBC it is ME not DH who's appearing......
An excuse to post this
Just turned on
To be greeted by the words "Thanks, Mark. That's all we've got time for". Sorry...
Quiet talks & summer walks
One of my best friends used to live aboard a houseboat moored next to that of Viv Stanshall. He used to pop by for a chat, sometimes dressed in a loose-fitting dressing gown with nothing underneath. Lovely bloke, apparently.

As I will - got called to dull meeting just as "Red house" started.
Welcome Break
Had a pack lunch in the car today and thought I recognised a voice; the laughter then confirmed it was indeed Mr Ellen. A most welcome break from a day of constant calling. It's been ages since I've heard "Redhouse"; still sounds as fresh as a daisy. Must catch this show again.
