The A to Z of Later...with Jools Holland

Find under P! Around 3 minutes especially about Polly; quite an honour.

Clips of Lisa Hannigan and Josh Homme. Josh talks about buying some suits in Saville Row because he considered being on the show with Polly needed a top quality suit.

Re: Polly Admiration (Muso fans)

Great comment from John Lydon:

'I love PJ Harvey too. That’s one very interesting woman who doesn’t play the sex category. She strides in there at the level of any man, and I’m really proud for her in that respect, because that’s really what we wanted in punk—we wanted girls to be the equal to the ...

Greg Palast's free documentary; until US Election Night

I have an interest to declare first. My friend Leni - left Switzerland for London in the 80s; ended up in a band called Bad Actors, who used to rehearse with My Bloody Valentine; she became mates with Kevin Shields! But, I digress - does most of Greg's research and she even appears in this. I ...

Re: 2016-10-31 - O2 Academy Brixton (London, UK)
