Now I realize how fortunate I was to be the age I was when these guys were a daily radio fixture. I'd love for them to get back together. Fuck pink Floyd and led Zeppelin and oasis. Mark & lard need to reform...... ready when you are guys????
Just an incredible selection of 'records of the week' in that year. (Sparklehorse, Ooberman, Ten Benson etc) We really were spoilt for choice. Just a shame we only got to hear them a few times because of the despised (by genuine music lovers at least) chart music heavy radio 1 playlist. Many of the rarer tunes I only found restrospectively thanks to an M&L fan site listing the complete ROTW archive online. The website is no longer there but I managed to copy the list and find all those seldom heard gems.
The best ones ever were the night time shows! Check out this compilation from '97: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LGTLo0AesJw.html They were always funny though- thank you for posting.
