Liz chats to author Bill Sykes about his book on the life of DJ and club manager Roger Eagle, who was the DJ at famous Twisted Wheel northern soul club in Manchester in the 60's. He moved on to run his own experimental club 'The Magic Village'. In the 1970s he ran Liverpool's main rock venue The Stadium before co-founding the legendary Eric's Club, which influenced the careers of numerous artists, including Holly Johnson, Pete Wylie, Julian Cope and Ian McCulloch, and was immortalised by the Yazoo album 'Upstairs At Eric's'.

Liz also gives listeners the chance to show-off their musical knowledge with topical tune suggestions, and chats to a listener about their favourite album in All Killer No Filler.
