Word In Your Ear

David Hepworth, Mark Ellen and chums cast an occasionally jaundiced eye over the goings-on in the worlds of music and entertainment.

Tapping the barometer of news to see what’s blistering or stormy, which this week includes …

… “The Man can’t bust our music!”: the crimes and misdemeanours of Clive Davis

… the single biggest change in our lifetimes

… when did musicians become ‘artists’?

… Johnny Marr’s guitar habit

… unlimited cash and what we’d spend it on

… Madonna smoking at Paris Fashion Week hoping someone would try to stop her

… why Dave doesn’t own any Arista records

… which five Paul Simon songs became film titles?

… a Prime Minister who loves ‘Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You’ by Big Thief!

… 56 year-old takes annual Dark Side of the Moon test: “and I still don’t like it!”

… are there more registered songwriters or lorry drivers?

Plus the biopic boom and birthday guest Andrew Stocks has a senior moment.
