Mr Trick & Wrongtom: Show #46 (August’09)

Every once in a while the planets align and we deliver a near-perfect show. The records don’t skip, the presenters don’t put the wrong track on (or worse, arrive to find a CD missing from its case) and the technology at Resonance holds up, coming together to deliver a show the BBC themselves would be proud of.

This is not one of those shows.

Battling a busted internet, a failed live stream, a knackered deck and searing 100 degree heat in the studio, our shambolic duo stepped up with a perfectly catholic selection, taking in anything from the swaggering groove of the Japandroids to the proto-house of Electra feat. Tara Butler. We even had Tom’s mum call in. Even our listeners couldn’t agree on whether this was a truly risible piece of broadcasting or the finest show we’d ever done. Take a listen and decide for yourself.

Tracklisting:
Moe Koffman -- “Curried Soul”
Electra featuring Tara Butler -- “Feels Good”
Cougar -- “Florida Logic”
Agent Ribbons -- “Your Love Is The Smallest Doll”
Tony Allen -- “Hustler”
Glaxo Babies -- “Police State”
Japandroids -- “Crazy/Forever”
Juice Aleem -- “Church Of Rock”

and of course King Tubby’s “Fever” rhythm ‘pon the soundbed.
