このコンテンツについて

Mark Ellen and David Hepworth have been talking about and writing about music together and individually for a collective eighty years in magazines like Smash Hits, Mojo and The Word and on radio and TV programmes like "Rock On", "Whistle Test" and VH-1.


Over thirteen years ago, when working on the late magazine The Word, they began producing podcasts. Some listeners have been kind enough to say these have been very special to them. When the magazine folded in 2012 they kept the spirit of those podcasts alive in regular Word In Your Ear evenings in which they spoke to musicians and authors in front of an audience.


Over these years they've produced hundreds of hours of material. As of the Current Unpleasantness of 2020, they've produced yet hundreds of hours more with a little help from guests kind enough to digitally show them around their attics such as Danny Baker, Andy Partridge, Sir Tim Rice and Mark Lewisohn.

  • Brian Protheroe on the eternal life of his 1974 hit “Pinball”
    2025/08/15

    Paul Weller has just covered it on his new album. Morrissey played it to Noel Gallagher who took the idea and ran with it. What explains the enduring appeal of a record that stalled at number 22 all those years ago? Actor/musician Brian Protheroe doesn’t know but he’s certainly grateful that it’s being reissued once again. His story takes us back to:


    …the days when young musicians hitch-hiked to London

    …the way the sun shone on the day “Sgt Pepper” came out

    …when Soho was a village and an out of work actor could afford to live in Covent Garden

    …when being dumped by a girl could inspire that actor to diarise his daily routine

    …when the jazzman who played the solo on the record couldn’t remember it for “TOTP”

    …how it feels to take your grandson to Abbey Road to watch your album being remastered.

  • Terry Reid, the man who really invented Led Zeppelin, & guitar fetishism
    2025/08/11

    Other, weaker podcasts may take the summer off. Not this one.


    …the story of Jerry Garcia’s alligator strat, Paul McCartney’s violin bass and the instrument Peter Frampton thought had gone forever

    …the long story of Terry Reid, who turned down Led Zeppelin, and the golden afternoon when he was the most charismatic figure in roc

    …the real reason why you wouldn’t have wanted to be at Keith Richards’ place on that day in 1967

    …why there’s nothing more boring than hedonism

  • Peter Ames Carlin on the record that made Bruce Springsteen
    2025/08/07

    word-podcast-798-peter-ames-carlin


    Friend of the pod and chronicler of the careers of Springsteen, Paul Simon and REM, Peter Ames Carlin has heard all the recordings that went into the album which was Springsteen’s last chance saloon and spoken to the people who were there to put together the story of how it was all done.


    ….the lucky break that came when the boss’s son went to a Springsteen show

    ….the man who played on Bruce Springsteen’s greatest record and then left

    ….how Springsteen learned that the way to make a live-sounding record was not to record it live

    ….the reconnecting of 70s rock with the great American rock & roll of the 50s

    …the thinking behind one of the few album covers deserving of the adjective “iconic”

    …what happened when Steve Van Zandt told the Brecker Brothers what to play

    ….the fundamental difference between American and British music
