Rockfield is a converted farmhouse in the Welsh countryside where, for over 50 years, bands have lived while recording. In the ‘70s Tiffany Murray's mum was the in-house cook, filling Motorhead to the brim with boeuf bourguignon and Black Sabbath with salmon en croute. Her touching memoir My Family And Other Rock Stars – hailed as “a rock and roll Cider With Rosie” – sees a succession of visiting bands though the wide eyes of a child and in a wholly new light - Freddie Mercury is the man who “smelt of sweet wood and oranges” and was nice to her dog, Julian Cope is “pretty and dressed in a white sheet”. It's a movie waiting to happen. We loved this highly original and revealing book and our conversation with Tiff which involves … … the ‘Saffy from Ab Fab' relationship she had with her mum who began her professional life spying on the Duchess of Argyll from a wardrobe. … floppy hats, Biba dresses and a purple beach buggy. … the only woman who recorded at Rockfield in the ‘70s. … the realisation that the men singing “Galileo” repeatedly in the stables were the same people later on Top Of The Pops. … her mother's Book Of Rules for visiting rock stars, “a matron in the body of Julie Christie in Darling”. … ample proof that rock music allows a life of extended adolescence. … shelved albums and unpaid bills. … Tiff's stepfather and in-house Rockfield producer Fritz Fryer. … Nick Lowe through the eyes of a 10 year-old – “tall, kind and looked like a bird”. ...

Strange episode this week. Actually to be 100% accurate more of a strange recording process.In the wider context of TCD as a body of work it's probably bang average, but the journey to get there was more than a little disrupted as you will hear.And to add to the slightly surreal, there is also the prospect of Showaddywaddy's rhubarb and the Hollies Christmas cards to contend with, not to mention being robbed on both sides of the world at once! For those of you further afield "the waddies" might be a cultural reference too far - so I have included some backstory here and a link to their biggest hit here. I have been singing it all week. Buddum-buddum...Oh and they are still touring!

Esteemed Wrestling writer John Lister joins the show to talk about how he got into Wrestling, his books, and how Showaddywaddy were the NWO and Mud were DX (alright, that was me), we look at a classic episode of WOS featuring Mick McManus, Johnny Saint, Marty Jones, and Terry Rudge, lovely stuff indeed

Season 5 - Episode 37: Getting to the ghostiesNamaste everybody – I'm taking a short rest from Clinton Vs Ramone to bring you episode 37 - You can't say I don't treat you! Well friends – she had me at hello, it's lovely Linda Pollock. Last week she let us all know she was looking for jobs – and she's back with some ‘irons in the fire' – but I must say, it all seems a bit secretive. Let's hope Linda isn't doing anything dodgy and she's going to be a secret spy! This week we hear from Paranormal researchers in York. They received an email about some poltergeist activity in a home – and despite thinking it was a prank, I went to check it out. Without giving too much away, the spirits definitely showed themselves… and it wasn't what anyone expected… Darren James, from Darwin Library theatre, also joins me to let us in on a spooky situation he had in a previous job as a youth worker. He took the children on a residential with an abandoned room – even the owner refused to go inside – but these kids we're fearless and decided to check it out. But what happened next was really rather spooky! And we read some advice from a modern-day fortune teller– and I must say, some of them chat a lot of Showaddywaddy. I'd like to think me, and Linda have lived a little – so email us with your problems and we'll try sort them on the podcast! All this PLUS Barry's ASMR (as promised), more guests from Chorley theatre, and we have a little chat about life on tour… Fading now… Thanks to: Katherine Boyle and Barry from Watford Ian Robinson and Shaun Duxbury at Chorley Theatre Darren James at Darwin Library Theatre Podcast producer extraordinaire, Laurie Peters, at Peters-Fox ----- Clinton Baptiste appears courtesy of Goodnight Vienna Productions -----     By signing up to www.patreon.com/clintonbaptiste you hear this podcast ad-free each week, that's ONE WHOLE WEEK before anyone else - and a whole lot MORE including access to my CLINTON BAPTISTE TV™ SHOW every single month!     Remember to send in your own DECENT spooky story by calling my spooky story hotline on 01892 711198 - and leave a message or email me clinton@clintonbaptiste.com     TO SEE CLINTON AND RAMONE LIVE ON TOUR ALL OVER THE UK FROM SEPT- DEC 2022 go to https://www.clintonbaptiste.com/live     Get your own Clinton ringtones, LIVE video recordings and more on kofi https://ko-fi.com/clintonbaptiste/shop Hosted on Acast.

I'm back from my holidays this week and raring to go – as much as I've enjoyed a few sangrias in my sarong, I'm here to bring you another episode of my paranormal podcast… So let the spookiness begin.

Long story short – he was called to a job involving a suspected witch, a devil worshipping room, and some pointy fingers… and now he has no clue if he's been cursed or has arthritis! Do not fear – I solved all his problems – I hope. I've had a run in with our director, Brendan, he told me I've no self-awareness, no generosity and I'm passive aggressive. What a load of shhhackatak. I'm really very excited to tell you about our special guest this week. You'll all know her – it's the wonderful Sian Gibson.

The latest episode of the podcast which asks; has anyone ever lost their virginity while listening to a Jive Bunny record?It's the long-awaited return of Our Sarah and Taylor after their encounter with the Spiteful Armoured Bollock, Pop-Crazed Youngsters – and to welcome them back, Al allowed them to pick out an episode. Consequently, we're heading deep into the heart of the Neighties. Your panel are a) being Arthur Seaton in Saturday Night and Sunday Morning without the sex, b) hovering over the pause button during the Top 40, and c) playing Human Frogger on the way to a Blue Boar, while the music scene is awash with flares! Pob faces! That dance where you look like you're walking on a bouncy castle with a pint in each hand! Ridiculously misplaced optimism! And BLEDDEH DRUGS, of course!Musicwise, crikey: we're promised a Rock n' Roll episode by Simon Mayo, who looks absolutely shagged out having been up since 5am, but the overriding theme tonight is British people finally coming to terms with dance music whilst plundering as much of the late Sixties as possible. Wayne Hussey warms up for his date with James Whale with some Pub Goth. New Kids On The Block do something pointless and futile with a basketball. Candy Flip – the Jedward of Madchester – cause the Kids to hysterically scream as if John Lennon had ripped himself from the grave and turned up at the studio to have it out with them. The B-52s have a better night out than you. Big Fun, Fish and Wet Wet Wet get about 20 seconds each. Bobby Omnishake prances like an absolute tit, everyone whoops at an Inspiral Carpets suicide anthem, Jive Bunny throws down some hardcore Dad-Hop, Quentin fancies Lindy I.D.S.T., and we get some actual House music at the end. For about 30 seconds.Sarah Bee and Taylor Parkes join Al Needham for a clinically intensive rummage through the Spring of 1990, veering off on such tangents as a comprehensive drill-down into Mike Read's Heritage Chart, what not to do when cleaning out a Fleshlight, the Stone Roses/New Kids war in the Smash Hits letters page, Showaddywaddy's Bloods/Crips dilemma, how the Martians wisely self-isolated and wore masks for a couple of years, and some remarkably graphic sex talk.

Chris welcomes singer-songwriter Kathryn Williams to his podcast. Kathryn is a Mercury prize nominated musician who's collaborated with John Martyn, Thea Gilmore and Ed Harcourt among many others. She's also a published novelist. In this conversation we hear about Kathryn's terrifying early gigs, her love of poetry and her collaboration with the poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy, surprising gigs (both good and bad) and family secrets. There's also a very funny story about the impact Showaddywaddy had on her teenage self.

"Hersham Boys", "I Don't Like Mondays", "Ooh! What A Life", "Is She Really Going Out With Him" and "Born To Be Alive", some of the massive tunes around in 1979.Hits coming from Donna Summer, Showaddywaddy, Roxy Music, Chic, Sparks, Ian Dury And The Blockheads and Cliff Richard.We are back in the summer of '79, it was a heck of a year! Enjoy!

The latest episode of the podcast which asks; if David picked potatoes on Jack Heap's playing field for one hour, how many Fumanchews would he able to cram into his gaping maw? Once again, Pop-Crazed Youngsters, Team Chart Music has returned to the safety of the late Seventies, and your panel is a) having their crayons thrown out of the window after an incident that could have been ripped from The Shining, b) being disappointed by Scalextric, and c) getting their arse tanned over an art installation on some concrete staircases. And all the time, the terror of Punk is looming, and no-one – particularly the canine population – is safe.As it turns out, the only Punk-free zone at this time is the episode of The Pops we're about to get stuck into. Like David's Scalextric, the show – in Robin Nash's safer-than-safe pair of hands – is running on rails by now. Unlike David's Scalextric, everything fits together, and nothing is skidding off the table and smashing against the wall. This is Top Of The Pops in its purest form, Pop-Crazed Youngsters, and we savour every mouthful of it for over six hours.Musicwise, it's a veritable bestiary of Pop Gargantua, with Xmas on the way, some huge LP drops this week, and the Monsters of the Hit Parade already starting to fight over your forthcoming record token. Paul Weller makes a doomed attempt to get the BBC to post his guitar to his girlfriend. The Carpenters say hello to some aliens. The Barron Knights dare to have a pop at The Old Sailor. Freddie Mercury pitches up dressed like a bottle of Sheridan's. Legs & Co hit up a sari shop in Shepherds Bush for a game of Sexy Lady Croquet. Status Quo predate Abba with an avatar bassist. Actual David Bowie pitches up to the studio, but can't be bothered to button up his cuffs. Showaddywaddy have a group huddle. And Abba get down to a proper session of Scandinavian Sorry. All brought to you by Peter Powell in his debut TOTP appearance, and he immediately hits the ground running, even if he has to be nudged by the gallery into putting himself about with the maidens of the studio.David Stubbs and Taylor Parkes join Al Needham for an intense drill into '77, veering off on such tangents as the Great Dog Collar Crimewave of Coventry, why trying to crush a tennis ball on the school playground in order to impress girls is a wrong ‘un, NASA convincing aliens that British people are big Medieval jessies, the ELO-Faust War, Dave Lee Travis annoying Brian May, a review of Dave Bartram's 2005 travelogue of caravan parks, Bruce Foxton stroke fiction, and the GOLDEN FLEECE OF CHART MUSIC has been located. Oh, the swearing in this one… Video Playlist | Subscribe | Facebook | Twitter | The Chart Music Wiki | Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Taylor Parkes, David Stubbs and Al Needham finish off this episode of The Pops in fine style. David Bowie watches his mate cheat on his missus up against a wall. Showaddywaddy nick some girl's silver top hat with ‘VOTE FONZIE' on it. Abba eschew all that Pop-A-Matic rammel and deliver another whopper of a #1. And Smokie are represented by a black void. PLUS Dave Bartram's travelogue of rubbish holiday parks, what an audition for Opportunity Knocks looks like, and some properly obscene Bruce Foxton stroke fiction… Video Playlist | Subscribe | Facebook | Twitter | The Chart Music Wiki | Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

#47: 25/12/77 – The Last Supper Of ShowaddywaddyA sort-of-festive episode of the podcast which asks: Jesus, why do we always leave this to the last minute instead of doing it in August like everyone else?It’s the arse-end of the year, and you know what that means, Pop-Crazed Youngsters: another ram of our hands into the Quality Street tin of a Xmas TOTP. This year, it’s 1977, which means that Noel Edmonds has taken one of his suits that all look the same out of the wardrobe – but this year he’s joined by Kid Jensen, in full Stylistics clobber. No trifle-related interplay this year, then, but it’s quadruple overtime for the Top Of The Pops Orchestra, who have stashed a dozen or so Party Sevens under their chairs to keep them going, and Team ATVland (combined age: 19) are sulking that they can’t hook their Binatone Pong to the telly, moaning that their Ricochet Racers isn’t much cop, and leafing through the 1978 Starsky and Hutch annual and dreaming of chocolate pancakes respectively. There were some astonishing singles that came out in ’77, but musicwise, and bar a couple of exceptions, this is your Nana’s Top Of The Pops. Showaddywaddy pretend to have a futuristic buffet. Some kids are bussed into White City to wave a tassel on a stick (or just the stick). David Soul’s head floats in space. Johnny Mathis pops up again. You can hear Kenny Rogers’ arse as he lowers it onto a wicker bar stool. And oh God, it’s Manhattan Transfer. But here come Abba, Space, Denice Williams, Hot Chocolate, and the return of Floyd Flipper as a fruity Santa! Oh, and there’s Paul McCartney’s Living Shortbread Tin and Bing Crosby. It’s a massive, sixteen-song evisceration, Pop-Crazed Youngsters, done with the care and attention you’ve come to expect from the little elves of Chart Music.Neil Kulkarni and Taylor Parkes join Al Needham for a long, hard stare at the winners circle of 1977, complete with such tangents as the Showaddywaddy Hanky Code, Lobbing It Out on Channel 4, assuming French is just English you don’t know yet, the gang war between Brighouse and Rastrick, Space Crumpet, when it’s time to finally let go of the Radio Times Xmas issue, and a chance to see someone from Chart Music looking like a massive potato on telly very soon.
