BBC Radio 6 Music - The Joy of 6, 05/05/2012

New Order, Best Coast, Santigold, Magnetic Fields, Terry O'Neil and drummer Tony Allen.

New Order talk about the comeback and photographer Terry O'Neil chats about cataloguing the careers of musical icons, plus sessions from Best Coast, Santigold and Magnetic Fields.

An hour long show with some of the best bits from 6 Music over the last week, this week we have not one, not two but THREE of the finest American musicians around at the moment in session including LA's Best Coast and Philadelphia's Santigold in with Lauren Laverne and the enigmatically dry Stephen Merritt from the Magnetic Fields live on Marc Riley's show. But they're not the only ones who came to 6 towers recently, drummer- extraordinaire Tony Allen told Gilles Peterson all about his latest Damon Albarn & Flea collaboration Rocket Juice & The Moon and fashion & celebrity photographer Terry O'Neill told Liz Kershaw what it was like to catalogue the careers of Frank Sinatra, Bowie & The Beatles, but first. New Order huddled around the mics like penguins in the depths of an Antarctic blizzard to discuss their comeback with Rad Mac.
