Let's get back on The Fall track. YK2 has hit but "What's a computer?... I had a sinclair back in 1983"... Who would have thought, a great album leads to a great dissection.

2025/09/30

For this month's interrogation, we have the pleasure of sitting down with Simon Rogers. Identified in almost every Fall-related press article as the "classically trained" musician, we get some fun insights from his role as both a musician and a producer in the band. He was also kind enough to provide us with some photos and other Fall items from his archive, which we will be sharing over the next few weeks. Enjoy!
