NO MORE HEROES

NO MORE HEROES

It’s all about the music, in 180 minutes of new wave, indie, rock, soul, vintage classics, interviews, and many other fine things. The second hour takes its playlist from the pre-1979 era, and is called ’The Vintage Hour’. The third hour is solid, lean, continuous and compelling songs, named ’The Wall Of Sound’. Magnus Shaw is your host. Features include: ’Twin Peaks’ (not the TV show), and the ’Midget Gem’ (not the sweet). A new episode is available for streaming and download at around 10.00pm UK every Friday. THE SHOW IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON TWENTY RADIO STATIONS WORLDWIDE, AND IS OFFERED FOR SYNDICATION. Just email nomoreheroes@mkscreative.co.uk for more details

Ah! So the prodigal presenter, Magnus Shaw, returns with tales of birthdays, paella, and trains. Don't worry, it's over very quickly and there's lots of cool music. Particularly if you've never heard Roger Waters and Van Morrison singing together.

Well it seems Mr. Shaw is on his travels once again. It's almost like he never does any work. So just the brilliant music, until next week, I guess.

Alice Cooper. All about demonic characters and mock bloodshed, right? Maybe not. Anyway, he's on this episode along with all the fabulous music, and Magnus Shaw.
