Stuart Maconie presents the show solo, with musician, journalist and film producer Bob Stanley. Best known as a member of the indie pop/dance group Saint Etienne, Bob's had a long parallel career as a music journalist, writing for, amongst others, NME, Melody Maker, Mojo, The Guardian and The Times, as well as writing two books on music and football. He also has a career as a DJ and as a producer of record labels, and has collaborated on a series of films about London. He's here to talk about his love of girl groups and a compilation of rare ghost-based tracks! Spooky!
