I was trying to remember why the thought of stringing up Ugo had come to me and it was because it was something I was saving for you, Milamber, on account of your current avatar. Ah well. There's space on the bowsprit for you, you pesky pirate, and you'll make a tempting target for the sharks
Thanks very much for an absolutely fascinating listen. Ten odd years ago, my early-internetting self looked at the evidence of I met... and Swollowed... and decided not to investigate further. Didn't like the titles (I presumed they were Mike-related but they sounded like inspiration from Special Tobacco), really didn't like the covers (and I really still don't...) and frankly didn't fancy putting money the way of whoever was responsible, no matter that they would undoubtedly have made good listening.
And it's certainly a high-pitched thumbs up from me for Mike's performance. I was working that week, but not listening to the afternoon shows. I took Friday off and recorded the BBC2 concert and recorded the radio version back at work two days later, across two C-60 cassttes. Still break those out once in a while to hear the proper bells. I love the DVD to pieces but the released edit was never as good, and where's Carrie's bass in TBIII?!!!!
I'll forgive you your piratical past if you forgive my pointless pedantry, but the source of this gold was 1FM at the time. It reached its apotheosis under Matthew Bannister, but Radio 1 was already trying to attract the cool kids away from trendy FM stations with a hip name. Poor Steve Wright never liked saying it much
