Music, chat and Heaven 17's Glenn Gregory

Mark and Stuart present a feast of great music and chat, plus Heaven 17's Glenn Gregory shares his 鈥楩irst, Last and Everything鈥� and chats about the band's new music.

Mark and Stuart present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today they are joined by singer, songwriter and co-founder of synth-pop band Heaven 17, Glenn Gregory. Glenn formed the pioneering synth outfit in Sheffield with former members of The Human League, Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh. They released their debut album 'Penthouse and Pavement' in 1981 and had their biggest hit single with'Temptation' from their 1983 album 'The Luxury Gap.'

Glenn shares his 鈥楩irst, Last and Everything鈥� - that鈥檚 his first record, the most recent one he's enjoyed and the record that means 鈥榚verything鈥� to him - and tells Mark and Stuart more about Heaven 17's new music - their first in ten years - and forthcoming tour.

Also on the show... long-running feature 鈥楾he Chain鈥� which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8700 songs.

With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started, including tracks from Donald Byrd, Mazzy Star, Jehnny Beth, Outkast, David Byrne, Ride, Sorry, Jorja Smith and The Clash.
