We
began this week’s show with some psych-pop, old and new, by such luminaries as the Twilights, Jacco Gardner
and Dungen, then plunged into the late 70’s/early
80’s UK electronic scene, exemplified by artists such as John Foxx and Death In
June, before heading into orbit with the b-side of the Space Agency’s
new single. We had tracks from Hookworms and
Baptism of Uzi, and then plunged back in a
psychedelic haze with the Sky Falling and the Seeds, plus
tracks from the debut Byzantines E.P. We paid
tribute to the late Bill Putt of Spectrum fame and also to ‘lost’ 60’s song-writer
legend Tandyn Almer, who passed away earlier
this year just as a retrospective of his work was being released, before ending
with another track from the excellent new Sonny
& the Sunsets LP. That was Technicolour
Dreaming with the Cat & the Brat on 3D Radio for another week.....
