Eclectic Mainline 25th April 2012

After last week’s Record Store Day preview show, it was back to business as usual tonight.  I think my personal favourite in tonight’s show was this one by Clark: This coming Saturday afternoon there is going to be a rather excellent-looking, family-friendly, disco in Saltaire hosted by DJ Wil Oddsox, called Love To Boogie. Get […]

After a false start a little while ago, Brigadeer Phillip Agnostin D’Argtanian Tannoy Gargle Pissflap Cope III plonked his posterior into the guest chair for Selection Box 128.  I continually say that I am not going to keep noting the number of the show we’re on, as its something I only mark out for my […]

John Grant is playing not once, but twice in Leeds this Saturday. In the afternoon he is doing an instore at Jumbo Records, and then he’ll be at Leeds Met in the evening. If you are in reach of Leeds you really should think about going to one, if not both. And here’s a Letherette […]
