We also go through a transfer story mid-stream when it comes to Forest targets. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest pay their penultimate Premier League game of the season when they go to Manchester United on Sunday. On paper both teams have little to play for given Forest are safe from relegation and United have secured Champions League football. However, Forest will be looking to finish as high as possible with each place in the table worth around £3m. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Steve Battlemuch to preview the match in full as well as discuss Morgan Gibbs-White's nomination for Premier League player of the year and reports Forest have opened talks with Neco Williams over a new contract. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Au début des années 80, la new wave anglaise s'inspire beaucoup moins des groupes punks qu'ils ont été au départ, que des boîtes à rythme et synthés des artistes Allemands des années 70. Kraftwerk, évidemment, la référence absolue pour Human League, Depeche Mode, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark ou encore Soft Cell.Mais il n'y a pas que Kraftwerk en Allemagne, on ne tarde pas en effet à découvrir des Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft, Grauzone, Einstürzende Neubauten… des noms aussi impossibles à prononcer que leur musique l'est, à écouter. Quoique certains sont plus accessibles comme Trio, Rheingold ou Propaganda.Ceux-ci sont de Düsseldorf, une région de bassins industriels qui fait furieusement penser aux Midlands britanniques, ce n'est pas un hasard. Leur idée est claire : allier la rigueur et la froideur mécanique allemande aux mélodies de la pop internationale. Les gars, ils veulent conquérir l'Europe.À Londres, un journaliste musical du nom de Paul Morley, un agitateur d'idées, travaille avec un nouveau label au nom étrange : ZTT Records, Zang Tumb Tuum. Un label lancé par Trevor Horn et sa compagne, Jill Sinclair.Ils viennent justement de triompher avec ABC et la métamorphose de Yes. Trevor Horn des Buggles est devenu le producteur dont tout le monde parle, l'homme capable de transformer une bonne partition en événement mondial. Il vient de racheter un studio construit dans une église, où ont été enregistrés des petits trucs comme We will rock you ou Stairway to heaven et qu'il transforme en QG sonore pour ZTT. C'est son laboratoire personnel, avec ses machines dernier cri, consoles immenses, ingénieurs du son pointus, un endroit où il peut inventer l'avenir car dans les années 80, il n'y a que ça qui marche.Alors on les imagine dans un pub de Notting Hill, juste à côté du studio : Paul Morley lui parle de Propaganda, Horn écoute car ce qu'il entend lui plaît immédiatement, la discipline allemande, des voix singulières, une esthétique forte et donc, un potentiel immense. Propaganda signe chez ZTT et déménage à Londres pour travailler au plus près de cette nouvelle usine à rêves.Les séances sont longues, exigeantes, il leur arrive même d'être un peu tendues car Horn pousse tout au plus loin : les arrangements, les textures de son, la dramaturgie. Le premier essai, Dr. Mabuse, est déjà une réussite : une musique cinématographique, menaçante, spectaculaire. Et puis vient le single Duel, plus mélodique, plus accessible, mais tout aussi travaillé : c'est le carton.Ce qui se joue alors dépasse largement un nouveau succès du label de Trevor Horn : la New Wave n'a plus de frontières. Les idées circulent désormais dans les deux sens entre Düsseldorf, Sheffield, Londres, et même Bruxelles. Avec Paul Morley et deux musiciens de génie, Horn va même créer son propre groupe, atypique, The Art of Noise, ils sont d'ailleurs tous très présents, sur ce titre de Propaganda qu'on entend toujours aussi souvent à la radio, plus de quarante ans après.

Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa meet in the Europa League semi-final first leg at the City Ground on Thursday night. It's a great occasion with two historic English clubs facing of only weeks after a 1-1 draw at the City Ground. Matt Davies is joined by the i paper's Daniel Storey and Paul Morley to discuss the game in full as we discuss team selection, being underdogs and the impact of injuries to Murillo and Jair Cunha #NFFC #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest beat FC Porto 1-0 in the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals at the City Ground to go through 2-1 on aggregate. Victory for Forest secured a second a European semi-final spot for the first time since 1984 but it came at a huge price potentially after Forest lost Chris Wood, Murillo and Callum Hudson-Odoi to injury. Forest were also without Elliot Anderson after the sad death of his mother Helen. Wood was injured in a tackle which saw Jan Bednarek sent-off before Morgan Gibbs-White got the only goal on the night. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Dillon Mapletoft to discuss whatever happens around 10 minutes after the game finishes. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Matt Davies is joined by Dan Cook and Paul Morley as we preview Nottingham Forest's Europa League quarter-final second leg against FC Porto at the City Ground. With the tie evenly poised at 1-1, we are once again left to debate Vitor Pereira's team selection with one eye very much on a huge Premier League game against Burnley at the weekend. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Another huge Premier League game for Nottingham Forest as they drew 1-1 with Aston Villa at the City Ground on Sunday. A win for Forest would take them significantly closer to safety in the relegation battle but it was a solid point with Villa chasing a Champions League spot. Neco Williams with the goal for Forest after a Murillo own goal. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Chief to discuss the game, the relegation battle and the week ahead in full as Forest look to make the Europa League semi-finals. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Howard Devoto and Pete Shelley read a review of the Sex Pistols in February 1976, borrowed a car, drove to London, asked the NME where they'd find the band and were told ‘try a sex shop in the King's Road'. The events that followed changed both the culture of Manchester and the course of rock history, a story mapped out in David Nolan's excellent ‘I Swear I Was There', a book as much about the audience as the band. His theory: “If the Pistols hadn't played the Lesser Free Trade Hall … no Buzzcocks, Joy Division, Factory Records, ‘indie' scene, Smiths, Fall, Nirvana, Blur, Oasis, Radiohead or Prodigy.' As the 50th anniversary looms, he talks to us here about … … those who claimed to be there and the ones who actually were … the contrast between myth and reality … the letter Morrissey sent the NME: “Maybe the Pistols will be able to afford some clothes which don't look as though they've been slept in” … punk metaphor: Howard Devoto asking a tailor to narrow his trouser legs and being told, “there's no going back” … North/South crowd violence: “a battle with a gig breaking out in the middle” … the three reels of home-movie and the photos that turned up 36 years later … Sister Rosetta Tharpe, ‘Judas' at the Free Trade Hall, Stones In The Park and other landmark Manchester moments ... the pioneering impact of Granada TV … “if you look at Manchester now, its media, its skyscrapers, its cultural prosperity, none of that would have been happened without those Pistols gigs” … “Sheffield would have admired them, Manchester thought: we can do better!” … and various bit-part players – Tony Wilson, Peter Hook, Paul Morley, Jordan and Jon the Postman.

This week Baxie talks to Michael Pickering—one of the former DJs at the infamous Hacienda in Manchester, England. Michael has just released his incredible memoir, “Manchester Must Dance”. In it, Michael takes a firsthand account of how the club became an extension of Factory Records (And how it was financed, in part, by the record sales of two its biggest artists: New Order and Happy Mondays.) Together we talk about how the club succeeded and what led to the Hacienda's spectacular collapse. We also talk about his participation in the film "24-Hour Party People" about the Hacienda changed music forever. On top of that, we also discuss how he adopted the help of writer Paul Morley, Johnny Marr from The Smiths, Martin Fry from ABC, Calvin Harris, and Noel Gallagher from Oasis! We even talk about Michael's amazing music career after Hacienda! A great interview with a seminal figure in Manchester's fascinating music history. Listen on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify, and on the Rock102 app! Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee.

Nottingham Forest lost 1-0 to Liverpool in Vitor Pereira's first Premier League game in charge in agonising fashion after Alexis MacAllister scored a late, late winner. Forest had seen West Ham draw with Bournemouth on Saturday as the gap to the relegation zone was trimmed to two points and having played well at the City Ground the gap remains the same.

Nottingham Forest missed out on the chance to go eight points clear of the Premier League relegation zone with a win against free falling Crystal Palace as it finished 1-1 at the City Ground.

Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Ruby Naylor at 5.45pm to review the game in full, the league table and the latest transfer news as Stefan Ortega signs, Oleksandr Zinchenko goes and Forest are linked with Robin Gosens. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-0 massive game in the Premier League by a threadbare Everton on Tuesday night. With tough games to come, it's one Forest fans had targeted for three points. Forest put in another poor performance against Everton after losing 3-0 to them a few weeks. Just not good enough. Matt Davies is joined by Dan Cook and Paul Morley from to discuss Sean Dyche's questionable tactics and use of the bench, as well more poor set piece deliveries. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-1 by Manchester City in the Premier League at the City Ground. It was a brave performance from Forest, who deserved to take something from the game after Omari Hutchinson made it 1-1. Rayan Cherki was instrumental for City and he hit the winner when Forest felt Morgan Gibbs-White was fouled. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Adam Summerton, fresh from commentating on the game for TNT Sports. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Paul Morley in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.headline.co.uk/titles/paul-morley/far-above-the-world/9781472289506/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/Far-Above-World-Space-David/dp/1472289471 A landmark exploration of David Bowie as an everlasting cultural force and change maker, by acclaimed writer Paul Morley. In the ten years since the death of David Bowie in 2016 there has been no loss of interest in and fascination with his life, music and driven, complex personality. He is definitely one musician, one performer, destined not to be forgotten. The significant grief and sadness that greeted Bowie's death has evolved into a deeper, enduring love for his music, style, wit, artistic curiosity, sexual energy, flamboyant outsider spirit and insatiable, provocative appetite for life. Far Above the World documents one of the UK's greatest creative artists, through the spectacularly colourful and vibrant journey of a man who constantly reinvented himself and his music. Bowie lived in the future, using the pop song to chronicle overwhelming and dangerous times, searching for the light, and creating a communication channel between post-war 20th century times and where(ever) we are now. This anniversary book will place him in the now and next, as much as is past, and argue that his songs, and his messages, reflections and warnings become ever more relevant and compelling as time passes.

Nottingham Forest's season has been far from what fans expected as they are rooted in a Premier League relegation battle. With the January transfer window on the horizon there will be a chance to strengthen the squad if money allows. We discuss potential options and if the squad is as good as we thought in the first place when answering listener questions. Matt Davies is joined by Emily Williamson and Paul Morley. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest head to Everton on Saturday looking to make it four Premier League wins in five games.

Does Omari Hutchinson start again after setting up the winner against Wolves. How many Premier League goals will Igor Jesus get this season if he remains the starting striker? #nffc #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-0 by Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League as they missed a chance to make it four wins in a row in all competitions. Brighton could have been four or five goals ahead after 20 minutes but Forest came into the game without getting on the scoresheet. Brighton won it with goals from Maxim de Cuyper and Stefanos Tzimas, the latter after two terrible errors by Morato. Matt Davies is joined by Chris Aylmer and Paul Morley to discuss the game in full. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Nottingham Forest beat Leeds United 3-1 in a massive game in the Premier League. Those Forest didn't mathematically have to win, three points is a huge psychological boost going into the international break as it reels in today's opponents and Burnley at the bottom of the table. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and James Belshaw to discuss goals for Ibrahim Sangare, Morgan Gibbs-White and Elliot Anderson, plus a great cameo from Omari Hutchinson. #nffc #nottinghamforest

David Bowie's significance just keeps expanding and the look and sound of him never age. Paul Morley has been gripped from the start and his new book ‘Far Above The World' explores the many reasons why. These among them … … Labyrinth, YouTube and the new ways people discover Bowie … why he's a figurehead of a vanishing world … dressing up for radio interviews … his almost fatal relationship with America and the 1971 promo tour that was his ‘On The Road' … Haddon Hall and his first key collaborators … writing a book about Bowie in public as part of the V&A exhibition – “I was an art installation!” … Five Years, the internet, the studio as an instrument and other ways he was ahead of the curve … “his YouTube reels are now part of his catalogue” … his boundless curiosity about art, film, books and technology … that unforgettable clip of TFI Friday: “every interview was performance art” … a missed chance on the Marc Bolan Show … “music to repel the Dark Ages” … and why his look and sound never age.

Ange Postecoglou has been unceremoniously sacked 20 minutes after Nottingham Forest were beaten 3-0 by Chelsea, ending a shambolic stint as manager after eight winless games. Matt Davies is joined by Dan Cook, Paul Morley and Adam Summerton from TNT Sports to react to the news, the timing of the decision from Evangelos Marinakis, what next and who is to blame as Forest reportedly look to bring in either Sean Dyche or former Manchester City and Italy manager Roberto Mancini. #nffc #nottinghamforest

I'm thrilled to be joined today by legendary music journalist and Art of Noise co-founder Paul Morley, to talk about The Art Of This — a new offshoot, descendant, and subset of the pioneering electronic group.Art of Noise helped reshape the sound of modern music, becoming one of the most sampled acts in history  Paul has reunited with fellow founders Gary Langan and J.

It's the international break and it's been a bit miserable talking Nottingham Forest on the pitch in the last few weeks as Ange Postecoglou struggles.

Matt Davies is joined by Pete Blackburn and Paul Morley to preview the match in Seville in full as we discuss the occasion, team selection and rotation and if the Premier League game against Sunderland is actually more important. #nffc #nottinghamforest
