The Shock Treatment / Barry Mcilhenny tribute episode.

Tonight's episode features Shock Treatment and was originally planned to have both driving force of the band, Davy McLarnon and Barry Mcilhenny, writer, lyricist and front man par excellence.

Sadly Barry passed away in Spain the week before what turned out to a poignant but uplifting gig at Belfast's the American Bar, a gig which did him proud.

Tune in for reflections on the band and on the incredible life of music writer and later a publishing giant in UK.

In addition, I have contributions from Paul Burgess, friend and old flatmate of Barry, plus memories from broadcaster Davy Sims and William Maxwell.

Stay tuned for a secret bonus track 'On the line' at the end.
