Radio One Play Jazz Butcher Record Shock: last night at approx. 19:36
local time, on Britain's "number one music station" (their phrase not
mine) Steve Lamacq and Jo Wiley actually gave actual airtime to "Girl Go",
and even if Lamacq did start speaking over those last few delicious
seconds of it, and even if it was played in their "Could have been bigger
than the Beatles" slot (which suggests that the JBC exist in the past
tense), this has to be reckoned a big improvement on previous UK media
neglect. Whatever next? Airtime for "16 years"? Nice remarks in the
NME? Flying pigs?
much love, Michael xxx
