As well as chatting about his latest publication, Clint also tells Mark and Stuart more about Inspiral Carpets' new music and tour. Also on the show... long-running feature The Chain, which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8,800 songs. With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started. Produced in Salford by Audio Always for BBC Radio 6 Music.
