Episode description

'Libraries gave us power' is one of the most iconic lines sang by the Manic Street Preachers, but did you know that the line originally went 'The Moon Under Water gave us pints'? Well, we know it to be true because that's what this week's guest told us (and he's bound to know); it's music journalist and author Simon Price!


Simon is an expert on pretty much everything to do with music, and his biography on the Manics entitled Everything was at one point the fastest selling rock book of all time. However, the best thing about Simon is his love for pubs. He's a seasoned veteran of the UK pub scene, and there's no doubt that his very own 'Pub of the Mind' will be one for the ages.
