BBC Radio 2 - Alex Lester, 18/01/2010

Alex introduces The Drums of Pun, offers a third eye and tells some creaky tales.

Alex offers a third eye, opens his mysterious shop and asks, does your house talk to you? Plus a brand new Record of the Week and a track from the latest Album of the Week.

The week starts here with another night of oddball conversation in which he asks, "what would be the advanages of having a third eye?" as the construction of the third person continues. There are more ridiculous products in Buffoon Town's new high-street sensation, Enigmas R Us, plus he tries to understand the language of creaking floorboards and other noises around the house. There are more choice tracks from Lester's Library and a rare Elton John B-side in the Listener's Library. The first Half-Time Roundup and Pause For Thought also feature and, making its debut on the show for one unlucky listener, it is the long-awaited Drums of Pun.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
