Today’s
The Beat on the
World Service is worth a listen for Mark Coles interviewing
Ry Cooder about his
new album.
The album is about what, extraordinarily, is now the forgotten history of the US - collectivism, Unions, the people who built the country (as opposed to those who got rich from it); the programme is on at 9:30, 15:30, 19:30 and 22:30 GMT and, if IP blocking allows, you can hear the snippet I heard on
Today here.
