Congrats to @elizabethalker.bsky.social on her book 'Everything We Do Is Music: How 20th-Century Classical Music Shaped Pop,' out now on @faberbooks.bsky.social. Among those with whom she spoke for the book are Jonny Greenwood and @stevereich.bsky.social, who asserts: “Good music is good music.”

Thanks Andy! Tonight is a modern classical spesh with @elizabethalker.bsky.social lker
This week's pre @stuartmaconie.bsky.social #Freakzone listening is #JunFukamachi and his 1977 synth take on the fab four classic. Just daft enough whilst still maintaining a degree of respect, it's a perfect aperitif for the best radio show of the week. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying

Not always the biggest Freak Zone fan (a high risk of jazz) but this was a superb episode, entertaining and enlightening in equal measure. @stuartmaconie.bsky.social and @elizabethalker.bsky.social both know their (glass) onions, and it shows. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
