Word podcast 296 – David Hepworth and Mark Ellen on the lost world of the LP

David Hepworth’s new book “A Fabulous Creation” is about the era of the LP, from “Sgt Pepper” in 1967 to “Thriller” in 1982. The book was launched at Foyles in Charing Cross Road with a chat between David and Mark Ellen in front of a packed house. This was illustrated with the usual magic lantern show which you can probably reproduce in your head.
