Streets Paved with Gold

on BBC Radio 2

Nick Barraclough concludes a survey of some of the world's most famous musical addresses with a profile of Denmark Street, London's "Tin Pan Alley". A rich supplier of musical instruments, sheet music and studio facilities, it remains perhaps the most celebrated street linked to music in Europe, having attracted the likes of the Beatles, David Bowie, the Kinks, the Rolling Stones, Noel Gallagher, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix and Lou Reed.
