Hello and welcome to episode 166 of the ACPG Podcast.

This week Ben has 'the look of love' as he zooms with one of his musical idols, Martin Fry of ABC.

Similar to Chris Difford a couple of week ago. ABC and Martin Fry hold a special place in Ben's musical life. No 'poison arrows' with this one, and we can definitely hear 'Smokey Sing', ok I'll stop dropping ABC songs in here.

As you can imagine this was a great a thrill to talk about Martin's life in music and his new 40 year Lexicon of Love live album. Celebrating their most successful and well known work.

Alongside the usual stuff we talk about fashion, identity, and Chanel guitars that got them in trouble. It's quite a ride, even if there was a few little audio gremlins.

Thank you to Martin for his time, it was a real pleasure to talk music with you. Thank you to Sacha for setting up the inviting and her support as ever.

See you next week for another band with a tonne of steal. Good Health Good Wealth.
