Sheer 107 - Johnny Black (Smash Hits)
Manage episode 341457544 series 3278563
On this week's Sheer Isolation we play out the second part of our Johnny Black interview.
In this part, the Devizes based music journalist talks about the time he joined a new team of writers to create the Smash Hits brand.
The publication team, which launched it's first magazine in 1978, went on to produce other titles such as Mojo and Q.
Johnny tells us about his Time Machine feature for Mojo - an 'On This Day' section which still lives on through his personal website.
We also play the new single from The Streets which features Jazz Morley; a singer and pianist who's been performing in venues across the south west for years, but more recently has been supporting household names in cities across Europe.
Our other tune is from alt rockers InAir who are performing at this year's Swindon Shuffle.
Jon and Kieran also mention Wiltshire musician, Kirsty Clinch, who's new album is lighting up the iTunes charts.. We also have an update on Bristol icon Big Jeff who is on the road to recovery following a house fire.
