Jarvis Cocker Radio
9 Feb 2010
I managed to catch the last couple of Jarvis Cocker 6 Music shows and wanna post about how much I’m enjoying them.
Plenty of Serge Gainsbourg and a whole bunch of other stuff…
like the readings from David Eagleman’s great little book, Sum: 40 Tales From The Afterlives
It’s a fantastic, thought-provoking book - my brother-in-law gave me a while back & I recommended it to a lot of friends. Pity I missed the Stephen Fry reading a few weeks back but…
here Jarvis Cocker reads ‘Mirrors’ by David Eagleman
In a more recent show, about SOUND RECORDING, Jarvis also reads an extract from Greg Milner’s book ‘Perfecting Sound Forever: The Story of Recorded Music’
[it's a description of what happens to yr brain when you listen to john bonham's much-sampled drum intro to 'when the levee breaks']
If you want to download or subscribe to BBC Radio shows I recommend Radio Downloader. It works for podcast too i think.
