I like Damon Alban. I have never heard of Idle Race. Jeff Lynne was in the group the Move in the sixties. And then ELO.

I would do ANYTHING to look through his vinyl collection. My collection of about 15,000 would I bet seem tiny in comparison!

I have the single “Skeleton on the Roundabout” by the Idle Race. It got a lot of airtime on the Pirates, that greatest time ever for music because they played everything without prejudice. John’s show “The Perfumed Garden” was on too late for me but I bet he put a lot of the DJs onto bands they never heard before.

Hard to imagine Peel listening to Reich!
