We're listening to Nick and me, Exam of Music, a podcast about songs and songwriters.

My name is Mark Linton-Mire.

My guest for episode 181 is Robin Hitchcock, one of my musical idols.

He's put out, I'm going to say 37-digit albums since 1979, starting off with free by

the soft boys right now hearing, I want to destroy you by the soft boys from their final album,

1980s, Underwater Moonlight.

He's just released a new album, Shuffle Mania, we're going to be talking about the Raging

Muse.

That album, then looking to his last album, 2017's Robin Hitchcock, is a song that's

Mad Shelley's Letterbox.

We'll look further back to 2004's Spooked album, The Song Is Television.

And we'll look all the way back to 1985's Fagged Mania, that's the first album by Robin

Hitchcock and the Egyptians to the song Glass.

And we'll conclude by listening to The Shuffle Man, also from the new album.

So I will have played a little bit of, I want to destroy you by the soft boys from Underwater

Moonlight 1980 to Orient folks, although, I don't know, maybe the better orientation would

have been something from 1986 or so, 88 when you were played on MTV.
