1 KEN THORN-THE ZOO GANG (INCIDENTAL CUE 1)

I entered the shop- on the wall facing, the clock was runnin’ backwards-so I went back to 1977, an bought myself a pair of ‘Spiderman’ boots & a green Parachute shirt, with one beige arm. Mott the Hoople was playing in the background…….or was it the kinks?

1 TOM TOM CLUB-GENIUS REMIX

Last Sunday I did my monthly radio show on 1BrightonFM. I was lucky enough to be joined in the studio by Ray Gange. For those of you that don’t know him, he was chosen to play the part of a ‘roadie’ in the 1980 film ‘Rude Boy’ featuring The Clash.

The film, part fiction, part rockumentary, tells the story of Ray Gange, a Clash fan who leaves his job in a Soho sex shop to become a roadie for the band

There is more to this man than meets the eye, nowthere is another chance to hear this show and a look into the life of someone who has lived life on the edge.
