  • Episode 201: High Llamas Live at Hebden Bridge; Watching Fellini's Roma in Italian; Watermark Gallery, Harrogate; Floyd Vs Genesis at Kirkby Overblow;
    Nov 3 2024

    Graham tells us what he learned by talking to Sean O'Hagan from the High Llamas when he saw the band at Hebden Bridge last weekend.

    Graham has also been watching Fellini's Roma (1972) in Italian! And visiting the new William Morris arts and crafts exhibition in York, which of course Charles has seen too.

    The duo comment on the recent announcement that Watermark Gallery in Harrogate is to close. They talk about why they'll be missed and how likely it is they can find new premises.

    Graham is suitably impressed by the best sound system he's ever heard at a prog rock event (Pink Floyd against Genesis) he gave at a talk at earlier this week - at the magnificent All Saints Church in Kirkby Overblow in Harrogate.

    How much money do famous Christmas songs make on Spotify?

    The weird thing about Procol Harum's number 1 hit A Whiter Shade of Pale (1967).
