Shazam Sunday 6

 


Catching up on episodes of Gone Fishing has been a great source for Shazam Sunday material.

In one that we watched fairly recently Bob Mortimer visits a record shop and buys a Roxy Music album. The track 2HB briefly pipes up in the background suggesting that the album in question is non other than their eponymous 1972 debut album  pictured above.

The music of Richard Hawley is perfect for this series and he pops up quite a lot. Nothing Like a Friend from his 2015 album Hollow Meadows is the perfect choice highlighting the enduring friendship between Bob and Paul.

The episode, which I think was the Christmas Special where Bob hands out this year's awards, concludes with Andy Fairweather Low's Wide Eyed and Legless.

I think that this particular seam has now been completely mined.

Roxy Music - 2HB

Richard Hawley - Nothing Like a Friend

  2. Had no idea that 2HB was about Humphrey Bogart until saw the visuals at a Roxy Music concert - felt a bit stupid...

  3. Richard Hawley does seem to be a favourite of whoever selects the music - surprised they haven't had him on as a celebrity guest! Love the programme though
