This week on Yellow Brit Road, we paid tribute to bassist Andy Rourke of the Smiths, who died following a battle with pancreatic cancer. No better way than to honour his legacy than by bringing out the vinyls the band sent to our station in the 1980s, to listen to his fine bass work as it was recorded and intended to be heard. We brought out some CDs sent to us by Iceage as well (for the story behind that, you're going to want to listen to the show!) Plus, Spring Reverb previews! If you're in Kingston, do check out the lineup and come by, we have great music playing the city this week starting Thursday. I'll see you there! Music this week by
