Emission dédiée à ma famille d'imbibés, les adhérents de l'association Un Pied Dans La Marge qui fête cette année ses 30 ans, tiens, comme votre radio préférée ça tombe bien  ! C'est aussi l'âge de la formation actuelle du groupe ANGE (l'originale remonte à1969 ! ) dont l'association sus citée fut crée en soutient de la bande à Christian Décamps et permet encore aujourd'hui aux tôliers du rock progressif français d'être totalement indépendants. Enfin, rare sont les groupes à publier de nos jours un fanzine analogique, autrement dit papier...glacé s'il vous plait (contrairement à mon whisky bien sec mais avec modération bien entendu ☺️). Ce trimestriel intitulé "Plouc Magazine" vient de publier son centième numéro et son contenu a nourri en partie la seconde moitié de cette émission par ce triptyque angélique :  D'abord , j'y apprend seulement maintenant, la disparition de JJ CHARDEAU...Quel personnage déjanté et génial...mais peu diffusé... !  ALAN SIMON avait collaboré à son opéra-rock "Magical Mystery Man" dont bon nombre de musiciens talentueux et renommés avaient participés, citons ici par exemple le saxophoniste de Supertramp John Helliwell,  le violoniste du Mahavishnu Orchestra Jerry Goodman ou bien sur les trois membres de la famille Décamps ancien et actuels membres de Ange : Christian, Francis et Tristan...Cet opéra mis en scène par Alan qui en avait aussi écrit le livret devait donner lieu à la sotie de quatre albums consécutifs. Jean-Jacques n'aura eu le temps d'en enregistrer "seulement" deux...Extrait ici de son ultime production "Ombres & Lumières : Terra Cognita 2". Ensuite, "Cunégonde", le nouveau bébé unisexe de ANGE dont un nouvel extrait est proposé avec dans ce numéro, l'un des rares titres chantés par Christian sur cet album, le membre fondateur ayant pris une retraite bien méritée de la scène, il s'est également mis en retrait du chant sur cet opus. Mais il n'en demeure pas moins le moteur, le parolier principal et prête parfois comme ici le son de sa voix unique, le tout magnifié par sa bande de musiciens exceptionnels !    Enfin, dans ce numéro 100 du "Plouc", je découvre aussi la chronique d'un album de l'artiste nancéen FRANCK TIRA, qui a sorti l'année dernière l'album "Amara" dans lequel je me suis plongé avec délectation !  Cet album est le pendant d'un récit du même auteur qui a donc plus d'une corde à son arc, "L'Enigme des 3A", dont Amara en est justement le personnage principal. Une belle découverte !   Mais avant cette trilogie angélique, une parution toute fraiche a démarré l'émission, avec les suédois de HÄLLAS qui a pu ravir les cages à miel des aficionados du hard-rock typé 70's. Le groupe dont le 1er EP éponyme est sorti en 2015, est en effet orienté heavy metal, hard-rock progressif, bref du bon son plein d'énergie pour démarrer ce numéro avec leur tout nouvel album "Panorama" sorti en début d'année. La semaine dernière nous avons découvert un premier extrait du tout nouvel album de LAZULI (voir la page de podcast du numéro précédent). Comme à chaque diffusion de la musique des Léonetti et Consorts, je fais cette amère constatation du manque de concerts dans l'hexagone alors que le groupe, qui s'exprime dans la langue de Molière, jouit d'une grande notoriété chez nos voisins d'Europe du Nord ! Merci à Louis de m'a avoir rapporté cette info primordiale : Lazuli assurera la première partie du grand MARILLION lors des dates françaises de la tournée du groupe en novembre 2026 !  Une excellente nouvelle et pour fêter ça, un extrait de l'album "Marillion.com" paru en 1999 !  Comme nos voisins anglais, mais de ce côté-ci de la Manche et plus précisément à Brest, a été fondé un groupe de rock progressif au tout début des années 80 : HALLOWEEN. Il en fallait du courage pour se lancer dans une telle aventure car si le genre n'est pas le plus diffusé sur les ondes "mainstream" aujourd'hui, c'était sans doute pire dans cette décennie balayée par le punk. Mis en pause en 2002, la formation s'est, avec quelques mouvements de personnels, remise en ordre de marche au moment de la pandémie en 2020. Depuis un nouvel album a vu le jour "Psy-Ko", une savante fusion de rock et de jazz avec un chant féminin en français dans le texte s'il vous plait ! Une belle découverte grâce à l'un d'entre vous et un groupe à (re)découvrir  absolument ! En 1973, c'est le groupe PROCOL HARUM qui subissait quelques changements, d'ailleurs salutaires pour le regretté Garry Brooker qui reprenait pleinement les commandes de son bébé pour publier "Grand Hotel", que beaucoup considèrent comme le top de leur discographie, en tout cas un incontournable toujours le bienvenu à l'antenne ici ! En 2010, sous le nom de Marco, un musicien français lançais le projet instrumental EDENYA qui sera finalement aussi chanté. Un EP et quelques albums suivants, la formation a su se hisser dans le haut du panier du rock progressif français (d'ailleurs je ne suis pas peu fier de savoir qu'un auditeur de la belle Bourgogne et aux pavillons bien aiguisés s'est procuré toute leur discographie en les entendant ici !! ) Retour dans ce numéro sur le dernier et excellent album "The Secret Destination You Are Looking For" que certain(e)s ont peut-être eu la chance de découvrir en live juste avant sa sortie l'été dernier au fameux festival CRESCENDO ! Faisons un grand saut par dessus la trilogie "spéciale imbibés" (que j'évoque au début de cette petite  bafouille) pour une petite virgule pour un grand groupe, l'un des fleurons du rock progressif à l'italienne, j'ai nommé LE ORME ! Un court extrait ce soir de l'un des albums phares transalpin : "Felona E Sorona". En 2025, je n'ai pas boudé mon plaisir en diffusions multiples (intégrale, versions spéciales, live) de l'album de PINK FLOYD, l'iconique "Wish You Were Here" à l'occasion des 50 ans de la sortie de cet album majeur et de l'édition spéciale anniversaire. Pour conclure ce numéro, on revient aux prémices du succès du groupe avec un extrait de leur 2ème opus "A Saucerful Of Secrets". Un album transitoire avec encore quelques fulgurances d'un Syd Barrett qui sera trop perturbé pour continuer l'aventure et l'arrivée de son copain d'enfance David Gilmour qui petit à petit donnera au groupe sa signature guitaristique et caractéristique. Prémices d'un succès planétaire annoncée... Thierry Joigny Chaque jeudi à 20h

PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI, wishes you were here to hear him discuss humour in THE AVENGERS.First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on February 15th 2026.This week PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI himself, is back, although this week we're going to try and get away from the Antipodean content that his recent appearances on VISION ON SOUND have tended to concentrate on, and instead focus on a subject that is almost certainly more familiar to connoisseurs of British archive television: THE AVENGERS, that latterly most quirky of 1960s television drama series.Our idea was to talk about (and hopefully appreciate) the more humorous aspects of this particular show, showing its development and evolution away from its more urban thriller and kitchen sink dramatic roots in the early 1960s, to the urbane, witty, and charming version as seen during its final season in which PATRICK MACNEE's John Steed was paired with LINDA THORSON as Tara King, and PAUL picked out a particular episode that he considered to be one of the more broadly humorous ones for us both to watch.This was WISH YOU WERE HERE, episode twenty of series six, written by TONY WILLIAMSON, and directed by DON CHAFFEY, and, whilst what follows isn't exactly an episode guide-style examination of that show, it did provide us with an excellent prompt for a conversation about humour in TV drama series that includes references to other episodes of THE AVENGERS, THE NEW AVENGERS, DOCTOR WHO, and even CORONATION STREET, and I hope that you find the next hour as entertaining as it was for us to record it, even though PAUL wasn't in the most conducive of places (technically) on the day of recording.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.

In this first installment of our conversation with Greg Taylor, Ian Priston explores what it means to remember a cultural moment from the inside, not as nostalgia, but as lived perception. Greg reconstructs his introduction to Pink Floyd through a series of encounters: a poster on King's Road, the underground press, the first shock of a single, and the genuinely unfamiliar experience of the Floyd's early vision performed amid kinetic sculpture and liquid light. Rather than treating Syd Barrett era Floyd as a set of canonical artefacts, Greg's incredible recollections move between the tangible (equipment, ticketing, sight-lines and the physical layout of venues) as well as the interpretative (Barrett's “painterly” logic in sound, the band's rejection of conventional stage charisma and the early tension between pop, mainstream visibility and avant-garde intent). Part 1 ends with the story still in motion, moving towards Greg's attendance of a five-man Floyd Concert in January 1968 and the next phase of the group's evolution. Part 2 arrives next month, so stay tuned!Subscribe for more, and share your own recollections or questions in the comments.

Welcome to the latest episode of the Cinema Australia Podcast. In this episode I'm joined by actor Teresa Palmer, and director Marcelle Lunam to discuss their new rom-com, Addition. Addition follows Grace, played by Palmer, a woman who counts everything because numbers hold her world together. But when a chance encounter with Seamus, played by Joe Dempsie, turns her world upside down, her meticulously ordered life starts to unravel. Having appeared in numerous films and TV shows since the early 2000's Teresa Palmer really needs no introduction. But if you're unfamiliar with her work, she has appeared in films such as 2:37, Kieran Darcy-Smith's Wish You Were Here, Warm Bodies opposite Nicholas Hoult, Mel Gibson's Hacksaw Ridge, and Rachel Griffith's Ride Like a Girl in which she playa Melbourne Cup-winning jockey, Michelle Payne. Teresa's TV credits include The Family Next Door, The Clearing and Mixtape. Addition is the first narrative feature film for Marcelle Lunam having previously directed the documentary Habana (Abana) Shakes, and the music video Justine Clarke: I Like to Shake. Marcelle's work here is quite impressive for a first timer. Anyway… enjoy.

Send us a textA city can change your ears. We sat down in Seattle and felt how tightly the scene is woven: musicians who become neighbors, venues that double as history lessons, and a band's 35‑year arc that still bends toward community. Pearl Jam isn't just posters in shop windows; it's the reason for cross‑country moves, friendships forged in parking lots, and a thousand small charities that took root because the music said do more and the people actually did.The night's centerpiece is a room built for deep listening. At Shibuya Hi‑Fi, the lights dim, the door seals, and a needle turns Wish You Were Here into a brand‑new experience. Vintage gear, precise setup, and a no‑drink, no‑noise ritual invite you to hear string scrape, breath, and space you've missed for years. We talk about turning that focus into fuel for good: album sessions as fundraisers, rare‑tape dreams, and a Six Degrees tribute that connects Stax legends across time.Wine runs through the conversation like a second soundtrack. A Syrah that honors a mentor and supports suicide prevention. A vineyard chosen on instinct days after Bowie's passing. Why Syrah is a chameleon that speaks its place louder than most grapes. Along the way we chase joy in odd places—a 14‑mile city run, a detour into cast‑iron popcorn lore, a kid's core memory meeting Jack White—and remember that the show is only three hours, but the life around it is where meaning sticks.If you're into Seattle music history, high‑fidelity listening, Pearl Jam's lasting impact, or wines that tell a story, this one's for you. Hit play, share it with a friend who loves records and late‑night venue tales, and leave a review to help more listeners find the show.www.TheTouringFanLive.commedia@TheTouringFanLive.Comwww.facebook.com/TheTouringFanLiveInstagram-@TheTouringFanLiveCopyright The Touring Fan Live 2026

I am back in harness after taking a three-month break. I feel energised and ready for "One more spin on the merry-go-round". (The title of a book written by Sean Duignan after Albert Reynolds became Taoiseach in 1992. Albert said to Sean, "Are you ready for one more spin on the merry-go-round?") What did I spend my summer doing? I read books for the pleasure of reading and the "white space" reading provides. Discovered new songs and singers, new poems, and as a result of the time spent relaxing, visiting bookshops, but also in pubs in Sligo and elsewhere, listening to music and engaging in conversation. Oh yes, I also played some golf! I visited "Liber", an independent bookshop on Sligo's Main Street, staffed by very knowledgeable and helpful book lovers, and came away with an armful of books. I have made a determined effort to read as many as possible. My favourite holiday read was "The Last Ditch", as I very much enjoy Eamonn Sweeney's writing style. You will also find him on the back of the sports supplement in the Sunday Independent. His publisher's brief for the book was to review the 2024 GAA hurling and football season. However, the colour in the book comes from his memories of his family and, most enjoyably, the stories about the pre- and post-match engagements with people on the stands. Also, the craic on trains and buses, travelling to and from the games. MY most enjoyable evening of the summer was in "Shoot the Crows" music pub in Sligo town, when we joined in with the group singing "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd, a song that passed me by when first released, and is now a favourite on my playlist. A great chorus to sing along to loudly. I will share some more of the inspiration I received because of taking time out, and hopefully my musings in the coming months will also benefit you. I am now ready for another spin on the merry-go-round and look forward to connecting with you again through my articles. By Executive Coach Andrew Keogh of Aristo.ie

"Wish You Were Here" von Pink Floyd erschien im Jahr 1975. Es ist ein Konzeptalbum, das noch heute mit seinen großartigen Klangwelten, dem aufwändigen Produktionsprozess und einer spannenden Entstehungsgeschichte beeindruckt. Thematisch geht es um Verlust, Entfremdung, Wiederannäherung und um die Kritik am seelenlosen Musikbusiness. Obwohl die Urteile zum Album erstmal nicht so positiv waren, führte es nach seiner Veröffentlichung europaweit die Charts an und wurde in den USA und Großbritannien mit Gold ausgezeichnet. "Wish You Were Here" ist der Nachfolger des Erfolgsalbums "The Dark Side Of The Moon". Kein Wunder, dass sie während der Aufnahmen in den berühmten Abbey Road Studios unter sehr großem Druck standen. Meilensteine Redakteur Stephan Fahrig erklärt dazu, dass Pink Floyd zu Beginn erst mal gar nichts hinbekommen haben. Sie waren noch ziemlich müde, uninspiriert und haben sich oft gestritten. Sänger Roger Waters hatte schließlich die Idee, ein weiteres Konzeptalbum zu erschaffen. Einige Songs wurden dem ehemaligen Mitbegründer Syd Barrett gewidmet, der Pink Floyd 1968 wegen psychischer Probleme verlassen musste. Apropos Syd Barrett: Der erste und letzte Song des Albums, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", ist eine Hommage an den 2006 verstorbenen Sänger und Gitarristen. Während der Aufnahme spielte sich eine ziemlich tragische Begebenheit ab. Barrett erschien eines Tages im Studio, doch die Band erkannte ihn zunächst nicht. Er hatte sich den Kopf und die Augenbrauen abrasiert und wirkte völlig verändert. Der Moment war zutiefst emotional; Roger Waters und David Gilmour brachen sogar in Tränen aus. Zu dieser Zeit kämpfte Barrett bereits stark mit seinen psychischen Problemen, die durch seinen LSD-Konsum noch verschärft wurden. "Wish You Were Here" hat Pink Floyd auf eine ganz neue Entwicklungsebene gebracht. Die Band entfernte sich ein Stück weit von den Synthesizerflächen und näherte sich dem rockigeren Sound an, den wir später auf "The Wall" hören sollten. Gleichzeitig besitzt das Album eine zeitlose Klangästhetik, was es bis heute so faszinierend und beliebt macht. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Wish You Were Here" wird im Podcast gesprochen (19:30) – "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"(46:50) – "Welcome To The Machine"(53:00) – "Have A Cigar"(01:04:33) – "Wish You Were Here" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/pink-floyd-wish-you-were-here __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

In this episode of Fingal's Cave, host Ian Priston talks with Steve Anderson - creator of the iconic Floydboots website, visited over a million times by collectors, and author of the 2024 book Wizardo: Stories of a Bootlegger.Steve reflects on five decades of Pink Floyd: from being a 12-year-old at Wembley Empire Pool in November 1974 and the heartbreak of his prized Stoke bootleg being broken - to the challenge of hunting down and thrill of listening to rare titles. He recalls leaving home at 3am from Knebworth 1975, the ferocity and spectacle of the Animals tour, the monumental experience of The Wall shows, and meeting the band at the premiere of The Wall film.Steve also shares two extraordinary encounters with Syd Barrett in the 1990s - fleeting but unforgettable glimpses of the band's elusive founding genius. Along the way, he discusses Barrett superfan the late Bernard White, the legacy of John Wizardo, his adventures as a record dealer, and the time he was offered Roger Waters' Live at Pompeii bass. It is a fascinating story of how a lifetime can be shaped by music, soundtracked by Pink Floyd. This episode is in stereo - because, well, it just had to be. And if you think you hear a fly buzzing, dogs wanting attention, or even church bells chiming in the distance… you are not imagining things.

In this lively episode of Mark and Pete, the duo tackle three curious tales from the worlds of culture, politics, and everyday life. First up: the passing of Ronnie Rondell Jnr, the Hollywood stuntman who made others famous while remaining largely unknown. From being set alight on the cover of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here to crashing through scenes in Batman and Robin and The Mighty Ducks, his life sparks reflection on the unsung heroes who risk everything but rarely get the applause. Next, the Tesco Meal Deal — a staple of students and low-income workers alike — has crept up in price once again. That 25p rise may sound small, but it's a big bite out of already-stretched budgets. Mark and Pete chew over what this means for ordinary folk, and whether it's time to rediscover thriftier ways of feeding body and soul. Finally, we turn to the world of politics and pixels: Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and Volodymyr Zelensky appeared in a viral “Oval Office” photo looking like schoolboys in trouble — until the phantom foot gave away its AI origins. What happens when fake images shape real perceptions?

It's hard to imagine being in Pink Floyd in 1975. 1973's Dark Side of the Moon had not only achieved high praise from the critics but had sold better than most any album ever recorded. Nick Mason, Rick Wright, Roger Waters and David Gilmour had soared to extraordinary heights thanks to their balance of technological experimentation, their examination of modern capitalistic life and Waters' biting lyrics. They had plenty of money and adoring fans. The only worry was what to do next. For months they noodled around Abbey Road Studios (EMI Studio at the time) trying to find new inspiration; apparently while they drank each other under the table. Engineers and producers were sacked in an attempt to capture their greatness and harness all the capabilities of the latest available technology. Out of that came Wish You Were Here - an album that may not receive the praise (or sales) of Dark Side or The Wall but is perhaps their most listenable effort of the 1970s and a favorite among Gilmour and Wright. The very progressive and Floydian suite Shine On You Crazy Diamond Parts 1-5 start the album by creating an atmosphere of awe and wonder. Waters lyrics describe their former bandmate Syd Barrett; their former leader who had lost a battle with his own schizophrenia which led to the boys not encountering him for 7 years. However, in an odd twist of fate Syd made it to EMI during the mixing of the album with a shaved head, shaved eyebrows and weighing more than double than when they'd last seen him. It all adds to the mystery and legacy of Syd and Pink Floyd. Before the 6-9 suite of Crazy Diamond, we are treated to some wonderful Pink Floyd classics. Welcome to the Machine offers mechanical noises and dismal lyrics to not only warn of but welcome the new entries into the military industrial complex. The acoustic Wish You Were Here is a sweet yet remorseful song about lost friendship and the unfortunate changes that come with growing up and growing old. Have A Cigar is a very cheeky view of the music business but as neither Waters or Gilmour could quite pull off the right tone, they employed old friend Roy Harper to provide the vocals. All three are classic rock staples and songs the band would perform together and as solo artists throughout their careers. Often overlooked compared to the other Floyd output of the 1970s, we find this has aged well, is still very listenable and is as poignant as ever 50 years later.

#1 New York Times bestselling author, Jodi Picoult, spoke with me about writing for Wonder Woman, adapting books for musical theater, and the question of Shakespeare's true authorship in her upcoming novel BY ANY OTHER NAME. Jodi Picoult is the bestselling author of 30 novels, including landmark titles such as Mad Honey – her most recent 1 million-copy bestseller – Wish You Were Here, A Spark of Light, and Small Great Things. 40 million copies of her books are in print worldwide and have been translated into 34 languages. Her forthcoming novel is BY ANY OTHER NAME (on sale 8/20; Ballantine), described as a novel about two women, centuries apart – one of whom is the real author of Shakespeare's plays – who are both forced to hide behind another name. #1 New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah said of the book, “You'll fall in love with Emilia Bassano, the unforgettable heroine based on a real woman that Picoult brings vividly to life in her brilliantly researched new novel.” Elle called it, “[An] inspiring work of feminist literature inspired by real historical accounts.” Jodi was also co-librettist for the stage musical adaptation of her young adult novel Between the Lines (which premiered Off-Broadway in Summer 2022), the co-librettist of the musical BREATHE, the co-librettist of the musical adaptation of The Book Thief, and she is currently at work on an adaptation of Austenland.

For many of us who grew up in the the 90s, Julia Stiles was an integral part of our coming of age. Her portrayal of the clever, acerbic Kat in 10 Things I Hate About You was a radical reinvention of the blonde teenage female rom-com lead. Her roles in Save The Last Dance and Mona Lisa Smile spoke to our adolescent feminist awakenings and catapulted Stiles to stardom. And, just like the heroines she played, Stiles chose to do things a bit differently. At the height of her teenage fame, she went to study English at Columbia University, continuing to act throughout her degree, most notably in the first of four Jason Bourne films. Her latest project is her directorial debut - the feature film, Wish You Were Here, which Stiles also produced and co-wrote. As a mother of three, Stiles said that her parenting informed her ability to direct. Grief, how to stop caring what everyone thinks and discussing the most difficult times in their lives - Elizabeth and Julia answer YOUR questions in our subscriber series, Failing with Friends.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the iconic and massively prolific actor and director JULIA STILES! A really lovely episode where we find Julia on top form, with a perfect balance of funny and emotional (with a beautiful reaction to being informed of her demise, as show tradition dictates). Julia's been putting in serious work through the years, not least with 'Wish You Were Here', which she directed and goes into detail on. Of course she and Brett go into all sorts of terrain, including said film direction and being a driver as opposed to passenger, behind the scenes process, not being all the way out in the open, line readings ("Just do it happier!"), doing your own stunts at a younger age, growing up in New York, and good old fashioned fronting. Wonderful. ENJOY! Oh - stick around for added voicenotes at the end...
