Description

James did the usual thing and carried a box of 1960s 45 rpm singles down to the studio. You'll hear Barbara McNair and Barbara Acklin, Marvin Gaye, some popcorn R&B by Marie Knight, British tunes by The Pretty Things, the Honeycombs, and even Peter Cook and Dudley Moore on the right turntable.

Uwe went weird, and brought ONLY LPs! We almost never play LPs! He runs the left turntable at 33 rpm and gives you The Last Shadow Puppets, Georgie Fame, Bob Kuban & The In-Men, Stone Foundation, rare early Bowie, Mod Revival, the Specials, and more.  

Tune in now for a variable speed That Driving Beat!
