MEMORY TAPES: 25TH MARCH 2011

This week's Memory Tapes is all about a train journey, the train journey of Lee Georgeson & Alan Penton to Glastonbury Festival.

Lee writes...

"I was having a clear out over Christmas and as I was sorting through all my old cassettes I found the one we compiled to listen to on the train on the way to Glastonbury in 2003. We've been to Glastonbury a few times but this was the most special one, and to this day I still think the Radiohead gig was the greatest I've ever seen, especially following the Flaming Lips' furry animal costumes and all! The moment Thom Yorke sung 'For a minute there, I lost myself' accapella was spine tingling.

"Other memories from the weekend were De La Soul whipping an unsure crowd into a frenzy on the main stage, to then be followed by Mogwai - we never expected them to play 'New Paths to Helicon' so it was extra special when they did.

"Primal Scream also played my favourite set of there's I've ever seen that weekend. This mix-tape brought back so many memories of Glastonbury me and Alan thought we should share it with everyone. Hope you like it."

And the tracks are...

Radiohead - Karma Police

Flaming Lips - Waiting For Superman

Mogwai - New Paths To Helicon (Part 2)

Grandaddy - Crystal Lake

De La Soul - Roller Skating Jam

Primal Scream - Swastika Eyes

Love - The Red Telephone

Interpol - NYC

Belle & Sebastian - Boy With The Arab Strap
