Anatomy of a Song: Nigel Planer (artist) (Hole In My Shoe - neil, 1984)

Hello shoes, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to stand on you
again...

Unique episode as we enter the world of comedic pop with the
wonderful neil (always lower case) and his epic 80s cover of the
Traffic classic, Hole In My Shoe.

neil's alter ego, the great Nigel Planer explains all things neil
from initial character through to making of the Young Ones and
the spin off single/LP (Lentil Nightmare has to be heard to be
believed). And of course, reference to neil's masterpiece.

It's a 2-for-1 in the Anatomy of a Song dept, as we also get to
discuss the massive no. 1 charity single, Livin' Doll, which The
Young Ones recorded with Sir Cliff of Richard ("Can I go
now?")

A wonderful interview (and the most fun I've had getting clips
together for...)
