The story of Wild Thing and whatever happened to World Cup songs?
byMark Ellen, David Hepworth and Alex Gold

Take your protein pills and put your helmet on as we voyage to the far side this week to take a picture of …

 

… the Kanye West & Wireless ding-dong

 

… Springsteen with Tom Morello, Pet Shop Boys with Johnny Marr: the fine art of the ‘special guest’

 

… when Time Magazine invented Swinging London

 

… Gregg Allman and the judge’s wife

 

… Fake Plastic Trees! Pressure Drop by the Clash! Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)! Politicians trying to be hip

 

… a primal howl from the Troggs written by the son of a golf professional from Westchester County (Chip Taylor RIP)

 

… why all bands should have ‘membership’ gigs

 

… Back Home! This Time We’ll Get It Right! Are we still making World Cup anthems?

 

… never drive a car listening to the Mahavishnu Orchestra followed by the Sun Ra Arkestra and Trout Mask Replica

 

… plus birthday guest Chuck Loncon is listening to every record he owns.
