Tom Bailey of The Thompson Twins and Bob Geldof

Richard Green chats to Thompson Twins' singer Tom Bailey, & Bob Geldof is on the show too

Richard Green chats to Thompson Twins' singer Tom Bailey. He's continued to be involved in music over the years since the Twins, but will reveal some of his memories and how he's returned to singing after many years away from the microphone.

Also Bob Geldof of the recently reformed Boomtown Rats is on the show too. He was talking whilst at Devon's Chagstock festival last weekend.

There's the regular 12 inch mix of the week, and we hit Number 1 in the biggest selling "dozen of the decade". The Biggest albums of the 80's !
