A Don't Stand Me Down bonanza. Guests on the latest @GiddyPopPod include Dexys royalty in Helen O'Hara and a rare spotting of Kev Adams on a podcast.
Has there ever been an album so dismissed simply on the basis of the clothes the band are wearing? No.

I know I don’t tour much, but this is my last. Touring in your seventies, it’s not for me. But my lovely band and crew, we’ll make this one special - love Edwyn x
Tickets on sale from 10 am on Friday.

Another great format. Guests pick a copy of Smash Hits magazine and go through the issue page by page. From the publication that brought us the phrase, “Fab Macca Wacky Thumbs Aloft”👍👍
@GiddyPopPod
Wasn't expecting a Smash Hits reference in this discussion... @CatzCaroline explains how ver Hits first introduced her to the Velvet Underground. The curriculum at Smash Hits Secondary was a very broad one!
One of our favourite music memoirs NICO - SONGS THEY NEVER PLAY ON THE RADIO by JAMES YOUNG was discussed by @Willjhodgkinson @CatzCaroline and the @BacklistedPod crew. Have a listen:
