BBC Radio’s Late Show with Keith Middleton is now available at BBC iPlayer for the next week.
It includes an interesting interview with Toyah, recorded earlier yesterday evening, beginning around two hours into the show. She talks about living in Worcester, ghosts and hauntings, rabbits (and droppings formations!!), being involved with punk and how her music career evolved from cult status in the 70s into mainstream success in the 1980s, alternative career paths (Toyah would like to have been a sculptress), Hormonal Housewives and more.
There are also plays of ‘It’s A Mystery’, ‘Be Proud Be Loud (Be Heard)’, ‘Thunder In the Mountains’ and ‘I Want To Be Free’. The interview and music runs for around 35 minutes.
Toyah guests on the Late Show with Keith Middleton tonight. The three-hour programme airs across various BBC radio stations (Shropshire, WM, Stoke, Hereford & Worcester, Coventry & Warwickshire).
BBC Radio (Various): Late Show with Keith Middleton: Saturday 2nd March: 10pm
70s Rock: Toyah and The Blockheads. Norman Watt-Roy (from The Blockheads) and Toyah join Keith for a ’70s Rock Extravaganza’. Is there a 70s rock track you haven’t heard for a while? Let Keith Know and he will do his best to play it.
Toyah has guested on Keith’s show a few times previously. I’m not sure whether this is a new appearance or a previous guest recording being re-aired.
