Jo Whiley chats to Michael Eavis, Chris Martin, Pulp's Jarvis Cocker and R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe

Jo chats to the festival founder Michael Eavis, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Pulp's Jarvis Cocker, and R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe. And she plays archive tracks from previous Glastonburys.

Jo chats to Michael Eavis, the Glastonbury Festival founder.

She also speaks to Glastonbury veteran, Coldplay’s Chris Martin. Coldplay have headlined the Pyramid Stage four times - more times than any other act in the festival’s history.

Jo hears from Jarvis Cocker about Pulp's triumphant last minute headline slot at the festival in 1995. The Stone Roses had to withdraw from their Pyramid Stage slot on the Saturday night after guitarist John Squire broke his collar bone in a cycling accident. Pulp gave an incredible career-defining performance, including a live debut of 'Sorted for E’s & Wizz', and they finally got their big break.

Jo chats to R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe about headlining the festival twice.

Plus Jo plays some of the best archive interviews and tracks from previous Glastonbury festivals.
