THE COLLECTION: PEEL ACRES - 0. WELCOME TO PEEL ACRES (320kbs-m4a/9mb/4mins)
BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 30th January 2022
6 Music's Tom Ravenscroft invites a different guest each week to Peel Acres: the home of his dad, former BBC radio DJ John Peel, and his legendary music collection.
Tom's musical guests will lend a hand (and two ears) in making sense of this vast record archive, which comprises tens of thousands of albums and singles, built over a lifetime and meticulously catalogued.
John's broadcasting career spanned five decades, until his death in 2004. He's known for the thousands of Peel Sessions broadcast on his BBC Radio 1 show, and for playing an instrumental role in the early careers of many bands; including Pulp, The Smiths, The Undertones and The White Stripes.
THE COLLECTION: PEEL ACRES - 1. DAMON ALBARN (320kbs-m4a/76mb/33mins)
BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 30th January 2022
Blur frontman and Gorillaz founder, Damon Albarn is Tom Ravenscroft's first guest to Peel Acres; lending a hand (and two ears) in making sense of his dad's vast record collection - tens of thousands of albums and singles collected over a lifetime. Damon first visited John Peel's home back in the late 90s, when Blur recorded a session for his Radio 1 show.
Presented by Tom Ravenscroft
Produced by Kevin Core
Episode Sleeve Notes:
Track 1: The Fall - Kurious Oranj (from I Am Kurious Oranj)
Damon instantly hones in on I Am Kurious Oranj; a 1988 album by The Fall which was written to soundtrack a ballet, in collaboration with Scottish dancer Michael Clark. Credited as John Peel's favourite band, the post-punk outfit was led by Mark E Smith - the only constant band member in an ever changing line up.
Track 2: The Idle Race - Please No More Sad Songs (from Idle Race)
Taking "a complete punt", Damon next pulls out a 1969 album by the Birmingham band The Idle Race - who he's surprised to discover is the first record produced by Jeff Lynne, who also provides lead vocals. After this album failed to chart, he made the move to… The Move, who later become Electric Light Orchestra (best known for the track Mr Blue Sky).
Track 3: Kevin Ayers - Lady Rachel (from Joy of a Toy)
Damon's next pick is another 1969 record, and one he remembers from his own parents' (much more limited) collection. Joy of a Toy was the debut solo album of Kevin Ayres, a founding member of rock band Soft Machine. He compares the "classic English whimsy" of Ayers's voice to that of Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd's original frontman and lyricist.
Track 4: Blah Blah Blah - Why Diddle
The next pick is the B side to a 7" single by Blah Blah Blah, a band from Clacton-on-Sea in Essex, which Damon introduces à la Peel. Tom compares their sound to the avant-garde music of Captain Beefheart.
Track 5: Soft Machine - Save Yourself (from The Soft Machine)
Fun fact: Damon's dad, Keith Albarn briefly managed the Soft Machine. This debut album is the only one to feature previous pick, Kevin Ayers - alongside lead vocals from Robert Wyatt. Tom reveals that Wyatt was a regular visitor to Peel Acres and still occasionally calls now (he's known to leave wonderfully long answerphone messages).
Track 6: Mahalia Jackson - We Shall Overcome
The next pick is "The Queen of Gospel", Mahalia Jackson - who is considered one of the greatest voices of the 20th century and one Damon has known since a child. With a singing career spanning over 40 years, she also took an active role in the American civil rights movement and sang just before Martin Luther King Jr delivered his famous "I Have a Dream speech".
Damon is a fan of early gospel vocal quartets, and says his favourite classical piece is A Child of Our Time, by British composer Michael Tippett - which includes sections of spirituals. Which leads on to talking about polyphony - that is, combining a number of parts, which each form an individual melody and harmonise with each other. He references composer Pérotin, who developed early polophonic work in Notre Dame, Paris in the 12th century.
Track 7: J. R. R. Tolkien - From Poems and Songs of Middle Earth
The A side of this 1967 album features writer J. R. R. Tolkien reading poems from his The Lord of the Rings and The Adventures of Tom Bombadil books. Side B features songs from Middle Earth, with music composed by Donald Swann - who features on piano, accompanying the fittingly named singer William Elvin.
Track 8: Love - Alone Again Or
Damon's final choice, by the LA psychedelic rock band Love, was apparently a tour bus favourite for Blur. This track appears on their third album Forever Changes which, despite only moderate success in the 1967 charts, is regularly named among the greatest albums of all time.

SPANK THE PLANK (320kbs-m4a/63mb/28mins)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcast: 9th December 2021
The low, rootsy twang prevalent in funk music is called 'slap bass' - a tricky, sometimes divisive guitar technique involving whacking the bass strings with your thumb.
Comedian Mitch Benn charts its progression from the upright double basses of the 1930s, through Elvis Presley to the high energy rock of bands like Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Primus.
Talking to players like Yolanda Charles, Mark King and Guy Pratt, and musicologist Sid Griffin, Mitch discovers how the bass guitar emerged from back of the stage to the front, and into the bright lights of disco and '70s funk.
But Mitch is going to do more than talk about slap bass. He's going to learn how to do it and in preparation for a very discerning audience at the legendary Wunjo's Bass and Keyboard Shop in London's Denmark Street.

DESERT ISLAND DISCS REVISITED: OSCAR WINNERS 2 - GEORGE CLOONEY (320kbs-m4a/98mb/42mins)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcast: 13th March 2022
From Hank Williams to William Shatner.
American actor George Clooney shares his castaway choices with Sue Lawley
George was born in Lexington, Kentucky in 1961, the son of Nick Clooney, a TV newscaster. From the age of five, George spent time pottering round his father's sets, joining in where possible, shouting out the temperature during the weather report.
After an initial plan to follow his father into broadcasting, then studying for a short while at Northern Kentucky University, George failed to join the Cincinnati Reds baseball team. But then he got a part in a small film through his uncle, the actor Jose Ferrer. The film was never released, but it had persuaded George of his vocation.
Since this programme was made, George has become a family man and more involved in political and humanitarian work.
His Academy Awards include Best Supporting Actor for Syriana in 2005 and Best Picture for Argo in 2012.
First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in February 2003.

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: ROBERT PLANT (320kbs-m4a/78mb/34mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 13th March 2022Robert Plant is a singer and songwriter who was Led Zeppelin’s frontman from the band’s inception in 1968 until it disbanded in 1980. Led Zeppelin sold hundreds of millions of albums and in their heyday acquired a reputation for unbridled rock ‘n’ roll hedonism. Since 1980 Robert has gone on to achieve success as a solo artist and has collaborated with other musicians, notably the bluegrass singer Alison Krauss. Their 2007 album Raising Sand won five Grammy Awards.
Robert was born in West Bromwich in 1948. At 15 he appeared on stage for the first time as the lead vocalist for a local band after the regular singer fell ill. In 1965 he started performing with the Crawling King Snakes and it was after one of the band’s gigs that he met his friend, the drummer John Bonham.
In 1968 Robert and John joined up with Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones to form Led Zeppelin. Later that year the band embarked on its first US tour and the enthusiastic response from American audiences heralded a new force in British music. Over the next 12 years the band released eight studio albums including Led Zeppelin IV which featured one of their most popular tracks – Stairway to Heaven.
In 1980 John Bonham died from alcohol poisoning at the age of 32 and Led Zeppelin broke up. Devastated by his friend’s death, Robert took himself off to explore other creative avenues, recording and performing with a wide range of artists.
Robert and Alison Krauss released their second album, Raising the Roof, in 2021.
Robert lives in Worcestershire near where he grew up. He is a committed fan of Wolverhampton Wanderers and Black Country homing pigeons.

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: LESLIE CARON (320kbs-m4a/81mb/35mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 13th February 2022
Leslie Caron is an award-winning actress and dancer who starred in some of the most memorable films of Hollywood's golden age including An American in Paris and Gigi. Leslie was first cast away on Desert Island Discs in 1956 when she was 25, and her return, nearly 66 years later, marks the greatest gap between appearances in the programme's 80-year history.
She was born in Paris in 1931 and started ballet lessons at 11 to please her mother, a dancer herself who had performed on Broadway. Her early childhood was marred by the war and growing up in occupied Paris, but when she was 16 she joined Roland Petit's Ballets des Champs-Elysées which opened up a new world of possibility. A year later she was spotted during a performance by a member of the audience - Gene Kelly. He lobbied MGM to cast her as his leading lady in An American in Paris, which launched her Hollywood career.
Leslie played the tile role in Gigi both on stage in London in a production directed by Peter Hall, who she married, and in the feature film directed by Vincente Minelli. The film won all nine of its nominations at the 1959 Academy Awards – a record at the time.
Leslie went on to star in the L-Shaped Room and later played roles in the films Chocolat and Damage. In 2006 she won an Emmy Award for her part in the television series Law and Order: Special Victims Unit. More recently she was on our TV screens playing the Countess Mavrodaki in the drama series The Durrells.
She was awarded the Commandeur de la Légion d'honneur in 2013 and the JF Kennedy Gold Medal in the Arts two years later.
Leslie lives in London and describes herself as "almost retired."

THE ORIGINS OF THE METAVERSE (320kbs-m4a/130mb/57mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 12th March 2022
When Facebook changed its name to Meta at the end of 2021, the word "metaverse" got everywhere.
But the idea of a virtual reality, fully immersed life, spent in a structured, created, illusory perceived universe has its roots a lot deeper than that, even before the writer Neal Stephenson coined the term in his 1992 novel Snow Crash.
Pygmalion's Spectacles, a science fiction novella by Stanley G Weinbaum has hints of the idea. Perhaps it goes back to the beginnings of ancient philosophical traditions. It’s hard to nail down, so ubiquitous is the idea. Indeed, "world building" is in many ways just what film-makers, game-writers, authors and story-tellers have been doing for centuries.
More recently, it has even become fashionable to speculate that the universe as we perceive it now is actually some kind of a simulation, running in some sort of super-real computing medium outside of what we can sense.
On top of the growing sophistication and growing numbers of VR-headsets and AR devices, immersive games today and of the near future will involve artificial characters that try their best to emulate real people in their interactions with players.
So how might you convince one of them that their universe is a synthetic creation, merely the latest in a long continuum of human technological creativity? And why would that matter anyway?

SOUL MUSIC: SERIES 30 - 16. SONG TO THE SIREN (320kbs-m4a/64mb/28mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 4th December 2021
"Long afloat in shipless oceans": So begins Song To The Siren whose lyrics were inspired by Homer's Odyssey and the story of the Sirens who lured unwitting sailors to their deaths on the rocks. There is something so ancient and enchanting about the Siren that appeals to us. For the wildlife sound recordist Chris Watson listening to the song reinforced his belief that the eerie calls of seals at night were in fact the original siren voices whose sound and shape convinced sailors that they were being called by strange mer-creatures. His collaboration with poet Alec Finlay led to Chris recording two singers singing to each other across a bay in the North East of England "Here I am waiting to enfold you". Song To The Siren fills him with melancholy.
The image of lives lost at sea is one that Meg Bignell strongly associates with the song and when a family friend drowned in the ocean surrounding her native Tasmania she was comforted by the version by This Mortal Coil and Elizabeth Fraser's haunting vocals.
Larry Beckett regrets the song's association with death as he intended the lyrics to tell a more hopeful story about love. However Tim Buckley's death at 28 and the tragedy of his son Jeff's drowning in 1997 weigh Song To The Siren with a heavy sorrow that comforts those who have lost a loved one. Former Olympic runner Anthony Famiglietti lost his childhood friend Rob in an accident when they were both 21. Rob introduced Anthony to the music of John Frusciante whose version of Song To The Siren astounded him when he first heard it. It has a profound effect on him and it speaks to him of fathers and sons communicating across time and space, when one has passed on as in the case of Tim and Jeff Buckley, and Anthony's friend Rob and his father, the man who inspired Anthony's career as a runner.
When director Zack Snyder lost his daughter he stopped working on his Justice League film but when he completed it four years on he wanted to include Song To The Siren. Singer Rose Betts who recorded it for him explains how she immersed herself in the song to express the love, longing, grief and loss that it evokes. Musician and singer Dominic Stichbury sets out the musical elements that make this such a simple yet devastatingly powerful song.
Producer: Maggie Ayre
SOUL MUSIC: SERIES 30 - 15. UNFINISHED SYMPATHY (320kbs-m4a/64mb/28mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 27th November 2021
Personal stories inspired by Massive Attack's breakthrough single. Featuring the vocals of Shara Nelson, the track together with its iconic video would help catapult this band from Bristol onto the global stage. Stories include the photographer Giles Duley whose work was displayed during the song at the band's 2016 homecoming show in Bristol. Mountaineer Dmitry Golovchenko who named an attempt on the Nepalese mountain of Jannu after the track, and solicitor Marti Burgess who saw early sets from The Wild Bunch, the collective from which Massive Attack emerged, and for whom 'Unfinished Sympathy' helped crystallise her identity. Music Producer Ski Oakenfull deconstructs the track, peeling back the layers of beats, bells and samples. Belgian singer Liz Aku recorded a version of the track during lockdown, bringing back memories of her first love. Melissa Chemam, author of 'Massive Attack Out Of The Comfort Zone' explains the origins of Massive Attack, how 'Unfinished Sympathy' was written and why, when the track was released in 1991, the band had to drop the word 'Attack' from their name. A radio producer and DJ who spent New Year's Eve in a detox centre in London was asked to pick the tune to be played at midnight, and she chose 'Unfinished Sympathy'.

SOUL MUSIC: SERIES 20 - 3. FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST (320kbs-m4a/64mb/28mins)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcast: 15th March 2022
Long before it was a worldwide hit for Rod Stewart, the Cat Stevens song 'First Cut is the Deepest' made a name for the former Ike and Tina Turner backing singer, PP Arnold.
In an interview for Soul Music she describes the emotional connection she felt to the lyrics, having emerged from an abusive marriage shortly before recording it.
Also contributing to the programme is the song's original producer, Mike Hurst. He describes how he achieved the huge 'wall of sound' production using double drums, a huge string section, and a harp instead of a guitar to play the signature riff at the the start of the track.
There are many personal stories associated with the track: Carsten Knauff recalls a childhood sweetheart - his first true love - and explains why the Cat Stevens' version brings back bitter-sweet memories for him.
Rosemarie Purdy saw PP Arnold give an extraordinary live rendition at a club in Portsmouth in 1967. Never before had she seen such a heartfelt, emotionally charged performance. It's something she's never forgotten.
The Sheryl Crow version reminds Rachel Batson of a very difficult phase in her life; it's a song she says reflects her own faith journey.
And former Radio Caroline DJ, Keith Hampshire, describes the circumstances that led to him having a No.1 hit with the song in Canada. It was the first time 'First Cut' reached No.1 anywhere in the world.

SOUL MUSIC: SERIES 18 - 2. CRAZY (320kbs-m4a/64mb/28mins)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcast: 28th December 2021
"It's the kind of music that makes you feel like you're just hurting so good."
People of different ages reflect on why the pop country classic 'Crazy' made famous by Patsy Cline brings out such strong emotions in them, including a young woman mourning the loss of a father's love after divorce, broadcaster Fiona Phillips on losing her father to Alzheimers and 87 year old Wayne Rethford who as a young man in 1961 met Patsy Cline and two years later happened upon the crash site where she died after her plane came down in a heavy storm in Tennessee.
"That music becomes embedded in your soul" he says.

DYLAN THOMAS: THE BEACH OF FALESA (320kbs-m4a/227mb/1hr40mins)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcast: 20th February 2022
Never filmed screenplay by Dylan Thomas, adapted for radio for the centenary of his birth, and narrated as a 'Film for Voices' by Matthew Rhys.
Wiltshire arrives on an unnamed Pacific island hoping to trade in copra. But an encounter with rival trader Case leads to a macabre wedding. Shunned by the locals, Wiltshire sets out to uncover the secret behind Case's mysterious hold over the islanders, and the truth in the tales of the singing devils living deep in the bush.
Dylan Thomas adapted the short story of the same title by Robert Louis Stevenson to create this screenplay but it was never filmed, despite interest from Richard Burton. So this radio adaptation for the centenary of his birth is the world premiere of a work that blends some of the wordplay of Under Milk Wood with the brooding mystery of Heart of Darkness.
Producer Alison Hindell came across The Beach of Falesa when her stepdaughter moved into a new house in Sydney and found the published edition of the text amongst the remnants left behind by the previous owner.
