Small boy begins breeding budgerigars in Liverpool, makes enough to buy a drum kit and becomes the power behind Big In Japan, the Slits, the Creatures and Siouxsie and the Banshees. And one half of punk rock's most famous couples. The immensely engaging Budgie has finally written his memoir, ‘The Absence', and talks to us from Berlin about … … are bands only as good as their drummers? … Siouxsie, the Ice Queen goth-in-waiting who was actually “a cackling crazy tomboy from Chiselhurst”. … playing Shadows instruments in a nightclub cabaret, aged 13. … the gnawing pain of not being asked to play Live Aid – “we just weren't part of that all-pals-together-in-the-wonderful word of music”. … “World Exclusive!”: seeing Bill Nighy in a band in the ‘70s singing Rosalita. … the Apache and Wipeout drum patterns in the rhythms of the Slits and Banshees. … in praise of drummers: Bill Buford, Phil Collins, the Glitter Band, Humble Pie's Jerry Shirley. … the peculiar world of the teenage budgerigar breeder. … the dynamic of the Slits – “Palmolive, off-the-scale crazy”. … ‘You're The Biggest Thing Since Powdered Milk' by Burke Shelley's Budgie, Humble Pie's ‘Rockin' the Fillmore' and when you only have one cassette in your car and it's ‘Wonderworld' by Uriah Heep. … Siouxsie's Jim Morrison fixation and lack of ambition. … the advantage of being in a band with a girl singer. … and the likelihood of a Banshees' reunion.

Une boucle en 1972...Cette année les londoniens URIAH HEEP sortent l'un de leurs meilleurs opus (faut dire que c'est l'age d'or du groupe) : "Demons And Wizards" en extrait dans ce 428ème épisode d'Amarok en direct, tandis que la formation poursuit une longue tournée d'adieu... Découverte d'un artiste bordelais dont on sent bien l'inspiration d' illustres musiciens anglais des 60's mais qui sait faire preuve de créativité et d'originalité : ARTHUR SATAN vient de publier son 2ème album solo : "A Journey That Never Was". Plus d'une heure de bonheur ! Un album chaleureusement recommandé, comme ce titre diffusé ici pour notre plus grand plaisir ! Retour outre-manche avec l'ombre de SYD BARRETT à travers le groupe SLOWDIVE et une reprise de son "Golden Air" dans le pur style shoegaze des années 90's. Musique composée par le fondateur sacrifié de Pink Floyd mais qui n'en avait pour une fois pas rédigé le texte, préférant mettre en musique les vers du poète irlandais James Joyce. Dites donc ça fait beaucoup de talent en 4 minutes ! Direction l'Italie avec une artiste découverte assez récemment par l'animateur de cette émission que le monde entier nous envie (enfin l'émission !) grâce à Louis De Ny, LE spécialiste du rock progressif italien. Il s'agit d' ELISA MONTALDO avec ici un extrait du somptueux "Fistful Of Planets Pt II", publié en 2021 dans une édition multisensorielle (parfum, livret, dessins et bien sur la musique d'Elisa). Alors évidemment seul le son est accessible en radio mais quel Son...Unique ! En 1995, KING CRIMSON publie un nouvel opus après la 2ème rupture de sa carrière. Sauf que cette fois-ci la formation de Mr Fripp reste la même que la précédente, mais avec deux musiciens en plus. Ce qui en fait un groupe singulier à double guitare, double basse et double batterie (dont celle de Bill Bruford qu'on retrouvera plus tard...) Inspirés pas des mastodontes tels que Rush ou Pink Floyd, les membres de THE AURORA PROJECT n'ont pas à rougir avec leur nouvel opus qui ne déroge pas à la règle de produire des albums concepts depuis leurs débuts en 1998. Un univers d'anticipation mis en son par ces talentueux musiciens des Pays-bas. Connaissez-vous EDINBURGH OF THE SEVEN SEAS ? Si vous êtes Docteur en Géographie, vous savez déjà qu'il s'agit d'une toute petite et unique localité d'une ile britannique perdue en plein océan atlantique sud...Mais si vous êtes passionnés de musique et nantais, alors vous savez peut-être qu'il s'agit aussi d'une formation issue de la Cité des Ducs, qui vient de sortir un nouvel EP au son des 90's, plutôt introspectif, voire shoegaze à l'instar de Slowdive évoqué plus haut. Un extrait à découvrir dans cette émission, voire à redécouvrir si vous avez eu la sagesse d'écouter ou de regarder le SUN MUSIC ADDICT, numéro du 16 mai où la formation avait défendu avec brio "Childhood Ghost" dans nos studios nantais ! Retour pour un 2ème extrait ici depuis sa sortie du nouvel album de LIA HIDE. L'artiste hellénique revient avec "Aristophobia Nervosa", qui relève du génie !! Audacieux, avant-gardiste,inspirant et courageux car chanté en dans sa langue maternelle, ce disque une une des belles surprises de la saison ! Revoici donc Bill Buford, mais cette fois au sein de YES. Ces dernières années le groupe publie pour la plus grande joie des fans (mais peut-être pas de leurs banquiers) des versions remastérisées, remixées, augmentées, alliant vinyles, CD et Blu-Ray 5.1 des grandes productions de leur age d'or. Ici un extrait remixé par le "saittoutfaire" Steven Wilson de l'album "Fragile" qui a donc bénéficié de cette cure de jouvence l'année dernière. Autre groupe expérimenté : les écossais LONG EARTH avec une quarantaine d'années au compteur mais forcément moins exposé que leurs compatriotes précédemment cités puisqu'ils n'ont sorti leur 3ème album qu'en 2024 ! Les musiciens jouaient ensemble depuis toutes ses années, mais se sont enfin mis (pour le plus grand bien de nos cages à miel) à publier leur musique sur galettes depuis seulement quelques années. Bouclons la boucle avec l'an 1972, mais cette fois de l'autre côté de l'Europe (géographiquement mais aussi musicalement) avec l'une des figures de prou de ce mouvement allemand appelé Krautrock : AMON DÜÜL II. Ici pour un extrait de leur album "Wolf City". Vive LES rocks progressifs ! Page Facebook de l'émission : AMAROK44
Internationell författarscen 31 maj 2007.
La escritora Alba Muñoz revoloteó durante años alrededor de Bosnia, de su guerra, sus heridas, del gran reportaje soñado por cualquier periodista. Se movió alrededor de un hombre violento, de Darko, y de las miles de mujeres que fueron esclavas sexuales en los Balcanes. El resultado es 'Polilla', una novela fascinante que llega ahora a librerías.Después del accidente que sufrió la banda Supersubmarina en 2016 se adentraron en un tiempo de silencio. Ahora junto a Fernando Navarro presentan un libro que cuenta su historia, 'Algo que sirva de luz'. Un testimonio de amistad, creación, dolor y superación que vamos a escuchar gracias a Irene Rivas. Lo ha recogido hoy en el primer gran acto público de la banda en los últimos 8 años.Vamos a hablar también de otro ‘Tiempo de silencio’, el de Luis Martín Santos, protagonista, en su centenario, de una gran exposición de la Biblioteca Nacional que ha visto Ángela Núñez Y de 'La transmisión del sabor', de Bill Buford, el ensayo seleccionado esta semana por Use Lahoz.Escuchar audio
In conversation with Lexy Bloom ''A delicious new Gilded Age family drama-almost a satire-set in the leafy enclaves of Brooklyn Heights'' (Vogue), Jenny Jackson's Pineapple Street tells the story of three women navigating the shoals of forbidden love, gender expectations, family money, and too much tennis.

¿Que Sánchez pierde con la convocatoria a elecciones en Cataluña? ¡Quia! Veraneante del poder, el presidente no tiene ningún problema con abortar los presupuestos. Entre elección y elección, ya se plantó en 2025, mientras España, y su productividad catastrófica, pierde un año más. En principio la convocatoria beneficia a ERC, aunque todo depende de lo que pase con Puigdemont. El prófugo ha dicho que regresará, ¿pero podrá hacerlo sin que lo detengan? Depende de las decisiones del Tribunal Supremo, con la vergonzosa ley aprobada. Lo peor que pudiera pasar, en cualquier caso, es que ganara las elecciones Salvador Illa. Puede que este sea el momento para que Ciudadanos reflote. En cuanto al PP, ¿hay alguien ahí, aparte de Alejandro Fernández? ¡Sí hay un hombre que está contando su experiencia de cambiar de sexo con la ley trans!, le advirtió Juan Soto Ivars. No es periodista, eso sí, sino youtuber: Javier Rodríguez, alias Inocente Duke, ahora se llama Vida Rodríguez y, como es natural, lo primero que hizo fue entrar en un vestuario de chicas. Esta historia, como la del cabo Roberto y sus 36 hoy compañeras no debe hacernos olvidar, sin embargo, que la gravísima estupidez que nos inunda se construye sobre dramas personales reales. Habló de Caetano Veloso, de Bill Buford y de José Luis Sampedro, y no quiso despedirse sin vituperar a Marlaska, que con su pequeño gesto de no llamar a Vidal-Quadras retrata el estado moral del país. Y fue así que Espada yiró. Bibliografía - La transmisión del sabor, Calor y Entre los vándalos, de Bill Buford - Los Ángeles del Infierno, de Hunter S. Thompson - Cabeza de turco, de Günter Wallraff - Opiniones de un payaso y El honor perdido de Katharina Blum, de Heinrich Böll - El amante lesbiano y La vieja sirena, de José Luis SampedroSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zolang het maar met de belangrijkste bijzaak in het leven te maken heeft: voetbal.

How did Cameron Diaz’s new clean wine brand cause an uproar in the wine world? Where does wine fit into the wellness world? Which low alcohol and alcohol-free wines are worth trying? Should wine labels have ingredient lists? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Devin Parr, Founder and Managing Partner of Devin Parr & Associates. You can find the wines we discussed at www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks. Highlights How did a wine sales call end with Devin being mistaken for an FBI agent? Why did an embarrassing conversation with a customer renew Devin’s interest in geography? Why should you be fearless when tasting and talking about wine? What incredible experiences did Devin have while studying wine in Italy? How did Bill Buford inspire Devin to move to Italy? What is clean wine? How did Cameron Diaz’s wine brand cause an uproar in the wine world? How has the wine industry unwittingly given marketers an advantage? Where does wine fit into the wellness world? Which low alcohol and alcohol-free wines are worth trying? Should wine labels have ingredient lists? Why is the traditional wine industry so resistant to non-expert consumer opinions? Key Takeaways I enjoyed Devin’s take on clean wine, and why Cameron Diaz’s new brand caused such an uproar in the wine world. I think a definition would help, but that’s probably difficult to do given how the definitions of organic and biodynamic wines differ so greatly. I think wine can fit with wellness and a blanched life, without becoming a gimmicky or misguided marketing tactic that positions it as some sort of health drink. I’m going to search for the low alcohol and alcohol-free wines that Devin thinks are worth trying. I think wines should be more transparent about ingredients, using a QR code on the label that can be scanned to more details on the winery’s website so that this can change from year to year and not become so burdensome on the winery with packaging changes every vintage. About Devin Parr Devin Parr is the Founder and Managing Partner of Devin Parr & Associates, a PR, marketing and content agency for the beverage, travel, and tourism space. She holds a level 3 WSET certificate and in 2017, was named one of Wine Enthusiast Magazine's Top 40 Under 40 Tastemakers.

Devin earned her B.A. in Political Science and Economics at UC San Diego and she joins us now from her home in Southern California.

Ainda Que O "Não É Só Futebol" Seja Um Bordão Batido Atualmente, Em Muitos Casos Ele Realmente Pode Ser Aplicado, Quando Ajuda A Criar A Identidade De Um Povo, Como Na Itália, Ou Inicia Uma Guerra Por Independência Após 70 Anos De Tensão, Caso Da Croácia.

How DeAille Tam became one of the best female chefs in the world. Plus, Bill Buford’s odyssey to master French cooking after a career as an acclaimed journalist.
Ein Dorf in der isländischen Wildnis, der Verdacht eines ungeheuerlichen Verbrechens und die ungewöhnliche Gedankenwelt des Helden: Davon erzählt Joachim B. Schmidt in "Kalmann". Und: "Dave" von Raphaela Edelbauer | "Dreck" von Bill Buford
Der amerikanisch Autor Bill Buford spricht kein Fransösisch und doch geht er mit 50 nach Frankreich, um dort französisch kochen zu lernen.
Christmas is over, everyone’s eaten too much – and yet, there’s still a mountain of leftover goodies, from the turkey to the cheese board, from the veggies to the fruit cake. So how can we make the most of festive leftovers? And for that matter, leftovers at any time of year? Because this isn’t just about reducing the 4.5 million tonnes of food that UK households waste every year, it can also be a route to some seriously delicious dishes… Sheila Dillon gets creative in the kitchen while finding out more about the leftovers ethos from cook and author Melissa Hemsley, food-loving writer Bill Buford, and author and journalist Debora Robertson; along with tips for up-cycling the remainders of festive feasts from School of Wok's Jeremy Pang, Gardeners' World's Frances Tophill and BBC Food's Emily Angle. Presented by Sheila Dillon; produced by Lucy Taylor in Bristol. Pictured: BBC Food's Ultimate Festive Cheese Toastie from Sarah Cook. Find the recipe at www.bbc.co.uk/food.
Note: BPR is on tape for the holidays. For Thursday’s program, we brought you some of our favorite conversations from the not-too distant past.

The writer Bill Buford wanted to learn the secrets of French haute cuisine. So, he went native. Buford and his family moved to Lyon, France, where he undertook a rigorous, enlightening and delectable education.
March 2020. Supermarket shelves were bare, restaurants and takeaways were closed, schools and workplaces closed. Perhaps it's no surprise then that all around the world, people started getting creative in the kitchen. But as Leyla Kazim finds in this programme, some cooks took lockdown cooking to a whole new level. Warwickshire cook Dan Fell made headlines for sharing his 'perfect' fried chicken recipe after spending 18 months testing it. In New York, journalist and chef Bill Buford became obsessed with cooking the perfect roast chicken. And journalist Kate Ng spent her days emulating the perfect crimps on her Grandmother's curry puffs. It seemed we'd become culinary perfectionists in our own kitchens. For Leyla Kazim, lockdown was all about baking the perfect sourdough loaf. In this programme she wants asks why so many of us became obsessed with creating the perfect meal, and what the quest for perfecting a dish says about us. She speaks to long standing recipe obsessives food writer Felicity Cloake and 'obsessional' Youtube cook Alex. Presented by Leyla Kazim. Produced by Clare Salisbury for BBC Audio in Bristol.

Bill Buford is an author, chef, and adventurer. I've read his two latest books in the last year.Dirt, released in 2006, was the first half of an epic narrative that’s taken up the last two decades or so of Bill’s life. It starts with him asking to be let into the kitchen of a high-end restaurant in New York, Mario Batali’s Babbo, on the bottom rung, to learn the ropes. He goes to Italy to learn to cook pasta, and then back to Italy to learn to be a proper butcher. Dirt was a bestseller. Heat, released just this past May, picks up where Dirt left off. But to my mind, there are layers upon layers in this latest book that Bill’s earlier book didn’t touch. He stretches himself, in terms of reporting, in terms of pure daring to try things that many would be too scared to try in France, a country of intimidating culinary intensity, and in terms of writing. And we talk about the challenges he faced in structuring this book. It’s really fascinating stuff.I also read, years ago, Bill's first book: “Among the Thugs," about football hooligans in Europe. That too was a thrill to read.Bill was fiction editor at The New Yorker starting in the mid-1990's, and before that he relaunched a literary magazine named Granta in 1979. We talk about the commitment to great writing, no matter the topic. It was a true joy to have the conversation.Outro music: "Couch" by NSTASIA and D*L*P Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thelonggame.

Author Bill Buford recently debuted his new book Dirt, about his adventures in Lyon, France, training to be a professional cook and chef. That might sound like a stunt, but Buford--who also wrote the bestselling Heat, among many other literary accomplishments--actually went to cooking school and put in the hard yards in prep kitchens, and on the line. He and Andrew discuss key moments from the book and compare notes on pro kitchens, France, and some iconic figures.Please consider supporting Andrew Talks to Chefs via our Patreon page–pledge $10 or more per month and gain access to bonus, patron-only episodes, blog posts, polls, and more.

Bill Buford chats with Trey Elling about DIRT: ADVENTURES IN LYON AS A CHEF IN TRAINING, FATHER, AND SLEUTH LOOKING FOR THE SECRET OF FRENCH COOKING, including: what started him on this journey, how he ended up at a boulangerie for his first stage and why Bob the baker was so important in him better understanding Lyon, taking part in a pig-killing ritual and drinking its fresh blood, understanding Paul Bocuse's importance to Lyon, lessons learned in French cooking school and working in the kitchen at a Michelin-rated restaurant, four culinary deaths that affected him at the end of his French journey, and more.
A middle-aged dad infiltrates the brutal world of high-end restaurants… Bill Buford is a writer who specializes in throwing himself into high-pressure environments that he’s not equipped to handle. For his seminal book "Heat," he spent a few months cooking in Mario Batali’s New York restaurant kitchen, a decade before Batali’s #MeToo downfall. For his latest book, "Dirt," Bill moved his family to Lyon, France, so he could learn to cook French cuisine. He saw firsthand the French reverence for rules and learned to follow them. But he also came face-to-face with the “toxic aggression” that permeates high-end kitchens. He tells us about rethinking his role as a journalist, cook, and human being after that experience, and we ask him how much the food world has changed since he covered Mario Batali.

Ainda que o "não é só futebol" seja um bordão batido atualmente, em muitos casos ele realmente pode ser aplicado, quando ajuda a criar a identidade de um povo, como na Itália, ou inicia uma guerra por independência após 70 anos de tensão, caso da Croácia. Ao longo da história, o futebol sempre esteve envolvido em questões políticas, e serviu de inspiração para o nacionalismo dos torcedores quando este se fez necessário. No episódio de hoje, trago uma especialista em torcidas NS e nacionalistas, para falar sobre esses momentos, a formação das torcidas, ligação delas com seus respectivos clubes, e sua resistência por anos contra as punições da UEFA por exporem sua ideologia, em defesa de seu país.

The Malian singer Rokia Traoré is celebrated for her extraordinary voice, her collaborations with musicians and writers such as Damon Albarn and Toni Morrison, and her efforts to give opportunities to other artists in Mali. These qualities and interests are reflected in her choices as Guest Director of this year’s Brighton Festival. She talks about the work she and others will be performing. In Germany, the far-right party AfD - Alternative fur Deutschland – are using the nineteenth century painting Slave Market by Jean-Leon Gerome in their posters for the upcoming European elections. The French artist is seen as a leading proponent of Orientalism, and this work depicts a nude fair-skinned enslaved woman paraded for sale and examined by Middle Eastern or North African men. One has his fingers in her mouth, as if she were a horse whose teeth he is checking. BBC Correspondent Damien McGuiness and art critic Fisun Guner discuss the use of this provocative work in a political campaign. Granta, the literary magazine was launched in 1979 by a group of Cambridge University students and went on to become an influential force in the literary world, publishing heavyweights like Angela Carter, Raymond Carver and Philip Roth. Its "Under 40" list of emerging writers was influential and at its height it enjoyed a readership of 135,000. As the magazine turns 40 co-founder and former editor Bill Buford considers its history and place in today's literary world. Presenter: Stig Abell Producer: Kate Bullivant
In this episode, meet former NFL player Marcellus Wiley, cofounder of MBAs Across America, Casey Gerald, and staff writer for The New Yorker Bill Buford. Football—the American and British variety—plays an important role in each of these authors’ lives. Speaking from their personal experiences, they share musings, lessons, and expertise that may make you think about how sports and society’s expectations have affected your own life. And, hear why narrating is surprisingly more difficult than “a triple day training camp practice”.

"Hot pig Jell-O" may not sound like a draw to most people, but that's exactly how Mario Batali describes the headcheese that he got me to try—and even like!—more than 20 years ago. How he managed that feat, his nose-to-tail approach to cooking (though not exclusive to him), how he hires so many people who start out as line cooks and end up as chef-partners, and what he regrets about giving author Bill Buford an all-access pass for his terrific book Heat are just some of the many tidbits serious eaters will come away with after listening to this, the second installment of my conversation with the superstar chef and restaurateur.
Bill Buford discusses Granta magazine and Granta Books, an editor's ambition to be arrested, and his real-life confrontation with the Italian police.
