New series 1/8. As the pop single struggles to secure its niche in the digital era,
Radio 2 picks eight 45rpm records - all released between 1966 and 1977 - for their lasting significance. Each week a known music figure presents an in-depth exploration of a classic seven-inch, starting with Deborah Harry , who restates the case for David Bowie 's towering, melancholic, brooding Heroes
(1977). And adding further gravitas to the disc's already muscular mythology are industry giants Brian Eno , Iggy Pop, producer Tony Visconti and David Bowie. Producer Des Shaw
