Sid Griffin
Mark and Stuart are joined by resident musicologist Sid Griffin to talk about the new Long Ryders box set.
Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie's guest today is the erudite enthuse-meister himself, Sid Griffin. Our resident musicologist chats all about his time as frontman of Californian alt-country-cowpunk band, The Long Ryders. Formed in LA in the early 80s, they were part of the so-called Paisley Underground, influenced by Gram Parsons and The Byrds, and became well-known for their hit Looking for Lewis and Clark. As well as this, there's the Chain, an ear-bothering array of splendid tunes and your chance for office victory by getting the link in the three records of Teatime Themetime before anyone in Accounts or HR.
