Happy Hawk Day!

6 Music's secret society of wonderful music and daft chat celebrates The Hawk's birthday.

6 Music's secret society of wonderful music and daft chat celebrated The Hawk's birthday this morning. Producer Slev didn't jump out of a cake or sing 'Happy Birthday' in the style of Marilyn Monroe for the birthday boy but she did pop some favourite Early Breakfast tunes in the show, from Captain Yaba to The Accidentals, as way of aural gifts.

The 5.15 Request was an old classic Spacemen 3 tune; the latest forecast from the 大象传媒 Weather Centre was brought to you by Darren Bett, and another episode of radio's finest musical quiz, The Rockbook Files, featured The Beatles and Bruce Springsteen.

Hawk also asked you for songs that name-check magazines, your suggestions were most excellent and gave Chris the excuse to play Jackie by Scott Walker. Other tunes came from Utah Saints, Caravan, The Pioneers, Curtis Mayfield, Arcade Fire, House of Love, and Band of Horses.
