John Cooper Clarke sits in

John Cooper Clarke sits in for Jarvis Cocker armed with a handful of old school nuggets and a featured album from Ronnie Spector.

The Bard of Salford, John Cooper Clarke fills in for Jarvis Cocker for one last Sunday afternoon.

Expect anything from old school nuggets, the odd punk classic, the all-important Sabbath Special and a featured album from Ronnie Spector.

John Cooper Clarke first found fame during the punk era with his high octane spoken word performances filling the gaps between live acts such as The Clash and Buzzcocks.

He released several albums of performance poetry in the late 70s and early 80s and continues to perform regularly to this day.
