Marc Almond

6 Music audio chefs Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie rustling up a musical feast for your ears today.

6 Music audio chefs Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie rustling up a musical feast for your ears today. Joining them today: synthpop New Wave singer-songwriter Marc Almond. He began his musical career in the early 80s with David Ball in Leeds-based synthpop band Soft Cell (one of their biggest hits being a cover of the Northern Soul stomper Tainted Love), and has since had a long and varied career as a solo artist. He's collaborated with Gene Pitney (with their Number 1 hit single Something's Gotten Hold of My Heart) as well as Antony Hegarty, Tony Visconti, Nico, Siouxsie Sioux - and has ventured in almost every musical genre from Russian folk to techno. He's sold over 30 million records worldwide and is here to talk about his latest album.

Other added ingredients to your daily Radmac mix include The Chain, a full of flavour feature with over 6,000 songs in the mix. Could your pick be added next? It's your chance to get involved... AND there's Tea Time Theme Time, where you get to guess what links three songs over a nice cup of tea and a freshly baked scone if you're lucky.

Plus Music News to keep you in the loop of all things in the music biz, and some new music releases, straight out the oven. Mmm, tasty!
