Sorry, can't remember what he chose, but here's the link to 'The Chain'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/th...how/the-chain/
I did hear the Hafdis Huld session the other week, & that was utterly charming, as is the track that they played again the other night
'Action Man'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXJRE_Y26B0
Over the years, I first heard a lot of bands/artists that I got to like on the 'R & M' show (plus, those when it was Radcliffe & Marc 'the boy lard' Riley)
Such as;
Tindersticks (still a big favourite) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4J8gS_SbkE
British Sea Power http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2n-7K0Ef6Y
Arcade Fire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83KR_UBWdPI
Airborne Toxic Event http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKEu3EmBCzQ
Snow Patrol
Surprising Fact; Radcliffe was supposedly the first British DJ to feature/play tracks by/interview Madonna!! (under her 'own' name)
Know what you mean - their "graveyard shift" introduced me to Belle and Sebastian :cool:

Ahh, the 'graveyard shift'!!! Memories
I remember his 'Out On Blue 6' too
Digressing Ever So Slightly
His 'ThankYou For The Days' book is quite good
It tells of his meetings with David Bowie, his invite to Kate Bushes house!!!, etc.....

'Twas Heaven by Talking Heads. As to where the chap came from, was in a noisy hotel lobby so not clear. Sounded from the NE, but what do I know? North of Stevenage and everyone sounds the same. ;)Quote:

OK. Talking Heads were led by David Byrne who has also worked with Brian Eno so the next record in the chain is:
Seven Deadly Finns by Brian Eno
Next!
That's already been usedQuote:

'Heaven' was #1782
'Finns' was #1768
'Heaven' was followed by.... The Sweet & 'Hell-Raiser' (from heaven to hell)
Almost, 'The Chain' is part of a superb Radio 2 programme that is transmitted between the hours of 20:00 to 22:00, from Monday to Wednesday, & is fronted by Mark Radcliffe & Stuart Maconie (2 Lancashire lads)Quote:

I like the chain. I've thought before that it would be good to do it on the forum.
I'm off to google songs about photocopiers.
Please put the names of the records nominated so that those of us with no you tube access can continue to play!
Subway Sect eh? Ok, that links to:
Going Underground by the Jam
Underground - CaveQuote:

So, Nick Cave's first band was The Birthday Party. That links to:
Party Fears Two. The Associates.
No good with track names (stick CD in and away it goes - usually while driving). There is a track on the album which has "HMS Fable" as a lyric, which I naively thought would be the name of that song (i.e. a title track). Still dems da rules, my bad. :oQuote:

Enough excuses, on with the chain...;)

Kraftwerk did 'Trans Europe Express' whose music was then used by Afrika Bambaataa in his classic 'Planet Rock'.
Brown Eyed Girl - from Mr (Van) Morrison of course.

So it is.
