About this episode
With Mark Ellen rambling in the West Country it’s left to David Hepworth to talk Alex Gold down from the ledge in the light of the Dave Grohl news and discuss:
• just how many offers come the way of rich and famous rock stars
• whether his recent admission will in any way detract from the most winning smile in rock
• is this an opportunity for Jon Bon Jovi to step up?
• how a quick word from Taylor Swift is worth all the five star reviews in the world
• Nick Lowe’s infallibly entertaining story of Jet Harris and seven pints of Kaliber
• When they organised a reunion of all the progeny of Screaming Jay Hawkins
• ... and the greatest music book ever with Patreon supporter Ed Newman
