Comus on the BBC

Stuart Maconie has chosen 'First Utterance' as the featured album for his Freak Zone show on BBC Radio 6 live this Sunday (5th). The show is broadcast between 17.30 - 2000 GMT.

You can warm up the valves early, rotate that dial and catch Freak Zone on your walnut-cased wirelesses. You can also apparently listen on DAB digital radio, digital TV (sky 0120, freeview 707, freesat 707 & virgin 909) & online.

Here's the web address for Freak Zone; www.bbc.co.uk/6music/shows/freakzone

and here's Stuart Maconie's email; stuart.6music@bbc.co.uk

and here's a picture of the man himself, just so that your imagination doesn't run riot whilst you're listening;



There is, incidentally, a dark, muttered legend that swirls around Comus' cave at the dead of night, that Comus were banned from the BBC in 1972 after Roger threw his toys out of his pram because the sound was (allegedly!) so bad at at recording session for Radio One.......

..........rehabilitation at last!
