The Cherry Red Radio Show: Episode 15 (March 2021)

Welcome to the fifteenth episode of the Cherry Red Radio show in association with Boogaloo Radio, Almost Blue Radio, Slack City, Bay FM, Kalypso Gold, Ship Full Of Bombs, WRFN1025, WRFNGOLD, Mad Wasp Radio, Target Radio, Radio Six International and Delicious Agony.

Host Iain McNay is joined by Head of Press & Comms; Matt Ingham and Head of Catalogue; John Reed for a look at all things Cherry Red and beyond. An eclectic show as always; this month we have choice cuts from the world of progressive rock with plays from the likes of Downes Braides Association, Jon Anderson, T2 and a brand new single from Rosalie Cunningham. There’s plenty of punk from bands such as Vice Squad and Abrasive Wheels, and once again we uncover another unheard treasure from the mysterious archive of Joe Meek – The Tea Chest Tapes. There’s plenty more crammed into the two hour show taken from recent releases on the label or just from our own record shelves at home.

As usual Cherry Red Radio brings you two hours of music inspired by one of the most eclectic and prolific labels in the world.

Iain and Cherry Red are staunch supporters of buying music in physical form and where possible only play music that can be bought on CD or vinyl.
