Come and plug in your "pods", hearing devices and/or hearing aids as former Smash Hits journalists Alex Kadis and Marc Andrews pay special tribute to former Smash Hits editor, Barry McIIheney, who passed away recently. In his honour, A&M (now that's a good brand name!) talk through the 27 December 1989 issue when Barry was still at the helm of the biggest pop magazine of all time, selling over 1 million copies per fortnight at the time. There will be a lorra laughs, a few wibble moments (blub!), but also a truckload of insider info, stories and memories from that time when Smash Hits was "the pop Bible". Listen up now (you know you wanna) and enjoy the best hour-and-a-bit of your week right now. Go on then. Puhlease!
