The Richy & Jeff Show #9

John Grant - "Sigourney Weaver" featured in Episode 9Episode 9 in which Jeff consolidates his position as Mr Mainstream by choosing a live-electro-orchestral-pop-gem from a gig that he was actually at, a summery slice of urban dance pop (with a slightly melancholy edge) and a nicely reworked classic.

Richy picks a stylistic mish-mash from the late 90 s, a 70s MOR influenced track with great lyrics and gets the excuse he’s been after to play one of his gothic favourites.

Plus: Richy issues a disclaimer and Jeff tells him not to worry about it, we talk about another inappropriate compilation, report back from a couple of gigs (to summarise, both brilliant) and discuss the likely outcome of this weekend’s Erasure vs Pet Shop Boys duel at The Vinyl Frontier.

And, of course, the usual load of nonsense.

Thanks as always for listening, we really appreciate it!! (Yes, we say that every week, but we really do mean it!)

The Richy & Jeff Show #8

Kwabs - featured this weekAnother (possibly our most) chaotic affair, featuring our first special guest, winner of the Vinyl Frontier Singles Championship, Mr Steve Carman.

This episode’s highlights:

-Steve tells us why The Jam were his number 1 pick for the Singles Championship and then proceeds to confuse and horrify us with his choice for the Randomizer round. Strangely, he didn’t put us off having guests though, so we’ll line up a few more for future episodes.

– Jeff performs an acapella jingle for “The Randomizer”, chooses some more great electronica for his new track and discovers his “theme song”.

– Richy gets a chance to vent, chooses a couple of moody piano heavy pieces (not Richard Clayderman) and decides not to edit out some of this week’s cock ups 😉

Finally, we’ve decided not to put the tracklisting on these episode summaries anymore, you can now find them on our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/headtoheadpodcasts.

Thanks as always for listening, we really appreciate it!!
