Beth Ditto's Three Wise Women curation continues with a special Halloween edition of his Iggy Pop's Confidential show with his guest the film director John Waters.

Taking it in turns to share their favourite Halloween-esque tracks, the gruesome twosome treat us to such nightmarish nuggets as The Monster Mash, Moanin' At Midnight and Moulty.

Iggy and John first worked together back in 1990 when Iggy starred in John's film Cry Baby alongside Johnny Depp and Ricki Lake.

Waters began his journey into the world of film-making during the mid-60s with success finally arriving after the release of Pink Flamingos in 1972.

He was christened The Pope of Trash by the writer William S. Burroughs due to his work centring largely on the more delinquent underbelly of American life.

Iggy's musical legacy has inspired and energised rock and roll's alternative spirit since the late Sixties and his stage antics have marked him as a truly iconic frontman.
