This week on the Yellow Brit Road, lost tapes, Cardiacs, rock and poetry! We had old-new music from the Rolling Stones, aided by Mick Jagger having some extra time on his hands to dig through the archives to find a lost cassette of a recording the band did with Jimmy Page, which manifested itself into a new release!

She released a radio performance of her covering "House Of The Rising Sun" at the CFQC AM Radio Station in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada in 1963 - the earliest known recording of Joni Mitchell.

This week was August bank holiday weekend, which means ordinarily, it should have been the weekend that the Reading and Leeds festival, one of the longest running and largest music festivals in the world, took place. While the physical festival was called off for 2020 owing to health concerns over COVID-19, the Yellow Brit Road managed to secure passes to a very special edition of the festival: one that let us go back through the years and relive the best of live music at Richfield Avenue, Reading

What does John Reith sound like?

Yellow Brit Road ·

2020/09/01

John Reith, the famously uptight director of the BBC in the 1930's, took it upon himself to be the upholder of Britain's morality as director of the nation's airwaves. As we heard in the Lancashire episode from earlier, Lancastrian actor, comedian and musician George Formby often fell afoul of the BBC's standards under Reith with his cheeky and playful lyrics. In time, the often unreasonable principles to which mostly harmless creative content was held, has come to be referred to as Reithianism. So,

This week's Yellow Brit Road follows the rise of the Thin White Duke, in our first-ever album listen! We listened to David Bowie's seminal art-pop album, Hunky Dory. Cutting a portrait of a young Bowie in 1971, on the brink of stardom, a year before 1972's Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars catapulted him firmly into the public eye, Hunky Dory gives us a glimpse of Bowie setting out his plans in stone, still figuring his persona out. We talk about the circumstances of the album, as well as its

The artists played this week were Lancashire folk bands The Houghton Weavers, Oldham Tinkers, Lancastrian actor, comedian and musician George Formby, Lancaster based 90's feminist punk band Angelica (whose lead singer Holly Ross now

We opened with a solid set by Siouxie and the Banshees, and in a curveball for this show, American singer Andy Williams. His version of Can't Take My Eyes Off You can be heard here, and Muse's jazz cover for a BBC performance in 2002, here. Rock music is not dead, and this show will testify to that!
