Yes, interesting choice. I love The Metaphors version of Waterloo Sunset. And there is another Kinks cover version done by Roxy members: You Really Got Me on 801 Live.

Eclectic and fascinating. Great tracks. Kind of stuff I sometimes get on shuffle play.

This was a very good interview and I intend to listen again before the BBC link expires in 10 days time.

Gary Crowley certainly did his homework/research for this regular My London show.

I wonder if 21 Eversleigh Road, Battersea will get a blue plaque in years to come?
