Ep 296 with Sarfraz Manzoor in conversation

Shaun talks to Sarfraz Manzoor about his new live show inspired by Bruce Springsteen, and how his memoir was turned into last year's comedy film 'Blinded By the Light'.

Shaun talks to writer and broadcaster Sarfraz Manzoor about his new live show inspired by Bruce Springsteen, and how his memoir was turned into last year's comedy film 'Blinded By the Light'. His book ‘Greetings from Bury Park’ told the unlikely story of how a Pakistani boy from Luton was inspired to change his life by the music of Bruce Springsteen - and the live show will reveal how that story has continued to grow.

Shaun also gives another caller the chance to tell their Claim to Fame on-air in Small Claims Court. He also does battle with the 6 Music audience as both pick a banger in Circadian Rhythms. Plus Matt Everitt has the latest Music News.
