🎶  “It’s just another Reccie Friday, whoa whoa, good job you subscribe hey, whoa whoa…” 🎶 

Wow, cheers The Bangles, we’ve just come up with another killer jingle for our TNC ad campaign. Welcome to today’s bumper Recommender edition, in which we service you with a lot of excellent music picks, plus Nicky Wire talks us through his favourite Manics duets and former Jet frontman Nic Cester tells us about his new solo record. Nic also recalls working with Billy Preston – good ammo for you to keep those Get Back tweets going, go on, don’t let the Succession guys win!

Oh look, here’s a playlist we made to listen along whilst you read. Nice one!

We’ll see you on Monday, when Foals’ frontman Yannis Philippakis checks in to tell us about a brand-new Foals record that is coming your way in 2022. Thanks for subscribing, we’ve really got a good thing going on, us and you.

Enjoy the edition,

Ted, Niall and Chris
