Another Saturday hour of tea, scones (cream on first then jam - you heathens who think differently) and THE COLONEL playing his fave tracks from movies and telly. A few of the guv'nors were of course present and correct including God Barry, Quincy Jones, Henry Mancini and Lalo Schifrin. But a bit of current listening pleasure too in the form of London boy James Blake from the very peculiar but riveting "Sinners". Due to an administration cock up by one of the adjutants, there will be a show next Saturday as The Colonel's Hercules won't be leaving for The Deathstar until the day after the show - which will be a glorious John Barry retrospective...

The The and Thom Yorke are surprising additions to the film music hour from The Colonel, but there are stalwarts like God Barry and Ennis Morricone to keep some sort of status quo. Warning - there is also Joaquim Phoenix singing from Penguin: Folix Deux...

It's Easter time so it's time to mourn the dead and the past and to look forward to peace and regeneration, so what better way to celebrate than to listen to War film movie themes? "Attack Attack Attack" from consummate 'The Battle of Britain' to "Broadsword Calling Danny Boy" warblings of Richard Burton in 'Where Eagles Dare' and some 'Wild Geese' starring the 3 Rs and the most annoying kid in the history of cinema. More modern tunes too: The disturbing 'Remains' in the recent 'All Quiet on the Western Front' befitting the horror of World War One and a very surprising songs from Alex Garland's incredibly visceral 'Warfare'; 90 mins of tense, gory action. The Colonel celebrates the music of War films but is not celebrating War. War is not big and it's not clever; it is hideous and miserable and should be avoided at all costs....

We started with the best Bond opening tune that never was, caught up with The Man who would be King and "Peachy", stayed with Michael Caine with The Ipcress file, dabbled with a bit of TV with a splash of Jason King and Mannix then even managed to find some difficult jazz from The Architect. The Colonel is on every Saturday at 11... on Pirate Cat Radio.
