Wire's Colin Newman

Colin Newman of post-punk band Wire 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.

Today, Colin Newman, frontman of post-punk band Wire, joins Mark and Stuart to chat about the band's new album and 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. Wire - who formed in London in 1976 and released their influential debut album 'Pink Flag' the following year - are set to release their seventeenth studio album later this month.

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.
