Colin Newman and Graham Lewis of Wire

Mark Radcliffe presents solo and is joined by Colin Newman and Graham Lewis of post-punk group Wire to chat about their new mini-album, Nocturnal Koreans.

Mark presents solo and is joined by Colin Newman and Graham Lewis of post-punk group Wire to chat about their new mini album Nocturnal Koreans. Formed in London in 1976 this year marks their 40th anniversary. Their last album, their fourteenth and self-titled was part of the genesis for this new work as the 8 tracks were originally conceived during those sessions. They talk to Mark just before their headline set at ATP Festival in Manchester the same night.

Also, Mark talks to musicologist Sid Griffin about Prince, reflecting on his career and playing a varied selection of brilliant Prince hits.

And that's not all folks, there'll be tunes, chat and your good friends The Chain and Teatime Themetime to amuse you through to the weekend.
