Last week’s exclusive interviews with IPO impresario David Bash and musician Michael Oliver on Pure Pop Radio: In Conversation are now available for listening and downloading from the show’s PodOmatic podcast page.
Alan Haber’s discussion with David Bash must rank as the longtime pop music observer’s most in-depth interview ever. David talks about his early days listening to and collecting music through to his presenting the work of artists worldwide at IPO. You’ll be able to hear, by way of Spotify and YouTube links, four songs that have appeared on the annual IPO CD collections. David talks about these songs that he feels epitomize what the festival is all about. This is a rare opportunity to hear from one of pop music’s top observers; you won’t want to miss it.
Michael Oliver guested on In Conversation last week to talk about his music career and his forthcoming album, Everything Sunny All the Time Always. During the show, three songs from the album were played; since they are not yet released, there are no links that we can provide for you to hear them. You will be fascinated by Michael’s story and your appetite for the new songs will be considerably whetted.
