Author, Artist and Musician Ali Smith has popped in this week for a chat about her latest tome "The Ballad of Speedball Baby". This memoir charts the trials, tribulations and dream crushing of attempting to navigate the world of major labels in the 90s, at the height of their post Nirvana feeding frenzy.
