THE SATURDAY SPECIAL - RE-DIRECTED MALE: ONE FANS TRIP WITH JULIAN COPE

Since the demise of The Teardrop Explodes in the early 80's Julian Cope has been a reluctant pop star, acid casualty, eco-warrior, pagan revivalist, village idiot, holy fool, shaman, poet, author, revolutionary and scholar - he's also released no less than 44 albums, most of which you've never heard of, I expect. Join me this Saturday 12th as I take a trip with Julian Cope and explore the music from these albums - from giddy psychedelic pop to mind enhancing psyched-up krautrock wig-outs (although actually, I'll be favouring the giddy pop side of things for the most part). There's so much to choose from I'm spreading out the show over two weeks to do justice to the man they call The Arch-Drude Of Wessex (or M'lud Yatesbury, depending upon what mood he's in). He is definitely someone you'd want to check out, so join me for Re-Directed Male: One FansTrip With Julian Cope Part 2 this Saturday evening for The Saturday Special.
