Hello, fellow music fanatics, and welcome to a new episode of the Listening Party. Please pull up your favourite chair and settle in for another trawl through David’s extensive music collection.
This week we start a new mixtape: Stephanie Felice’s second, which she informed Dave was for her boyfriend who liked Joy Division. Dave immediately jumped at the chance to put together a fabulous post-punk mixtape extravaganza!
What Mary – who has more than once declared a strong aversion to music from the 1980s – will make of this is anyone’s guess. Tune in for possible outrage!
Thanks for listening.
