Doctor Freak Stuart Maconie delves into Wire's album 'Chairs Missing', and screeches through live jazz courtesy of Miles Davis.

Has it been a week since the last Freak Zone already? How time flies. Tonight, Doctor Freak Stuart Maconie pays tribute to Wire's sophomore 1978 album 'Chairs Missing' in the regular Featured Album slot. The record is reputedly named after the slang for a midly deranged person who has "a few chairs missing from his front room". Perfect!

Plus Stuart tickles our fancy with dubstep, garage rock, prog and folk, and throws the spotlight on Miles Davis' live album 'The Unissued Japanese Concerts'.
