The London Ear

Moonlighting ghostwriter Ben Thompson shakes up a snowdome of real and imaginary sessions with guests from the far-flung frontiers of musical and literary endeavour. On this week’s show, a shaggy dog story read by Maxine Peake, a disorientating mash up, a classic from George Chisholm and his jazz gang, and a new band from Romney Marsh who have been described as "Like Van Der Graaf Generator but with a lead vocal from Edith Sitwell".
