Pete Paphides and Needle Mythology

Guy Garvey's Finest Hour

Available for 5 days

Guy is joined by music journalist and Needle Mythology label boss Pete Paphides to talk about records, reggae and soft furnishings. He'll be welcoming in February with some tearful tunes and sending birthday greetings to the odd couple of Peter Sallis and Don Everly. Also, the Beckapedia spotlights the Invisible Pianist, Simon Armitage makes a confession and there's a postcard from Scottish broadcasting giant Douglas Hart. All this and new music from Al Green, the Arctic Monkeys and Bill Callahan. Guy's going need a bigger boat. Produced in Salford by BBC Audio for BBC Radio 6 Music
