This Is RadMac Calling: A phone special
Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat, and celebrate a couple of telephone anniversaries with a top selection of phone related tunes.
Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.
Today, they celebrate two telephone anniversaries: the 50th anniversary of the first handheld mobile phone call and 40 years since the first cordless telephone went on sale in Britain. Mark and Stuart spin some of their favourite phone related tracks, from artists including Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Saint Etienne, Blondie and Arctic Monkeys.
Plus long-running feature ‘The Chain’, which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8000 songs.
