Singer, songwriter and Charlatans' frontman Tim Burgess joins Mark and Stuart to share his 'First, Last and Everything'

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

On today's show singer, songwriter and organiser of lockdown album listening parties, Tim Burgess joins Mark and Stuart to share his 'First, Last and Everything' - that’s the first record he owned, the most recent one he's enjoyed and the record that means 'everything' to him. 

Coming to prominence in the 1990's as frontman of indie rock band The Charlatans, Tim went on to release solo records, set up a record label, DJ and write books. As well as releasing a new solo album 'I Love The New Sky' last month, Tim has been organising online album-listening parties... encouraging listeners to play a particular album at a specified time and see live discussions about it on Twitter from fellow fans and, often, the artists themselves.  The parties have been a popular lockdown activity for many.  Not surprisingly Tim has been named ambassador for next Saturday's 'Love Record Stores Day' which is being held in place of 2020's re-arranged Record Store Day, encouraging music fans to support independent record shops.  Tim chats to Mark and Stuart about his love of albums, his own new release and the records that have been important to him, including the Buzzcocks record his Nan bought for him when he was 11 years old.

Also on the show... a whole host of quality radio items including 'Breakfast Blend' - three tracks that make a great sonic blend - plus another instalment of Sunday Glove Songs.

You can take part in The Chain, choosing a track for our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs.

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday
