We wind the clock back 20 years on this episode of The Cacophony Sessions as Dan Whitell runs down the Top 15 Songs of 2003 with contributions from Martyn, Jim, Alex and Tom. 15 picks each, scored out of ten - some using the IGN scoring system and others…not doing that. This episode ranks the top 15, although all 75 songs can be found in alphabetical order on our Apple Music playlist and our Spotify playlist.

A couple of Undeniable Bangers and tangents ahoy - LET’S FIND OUT which band may have suffered with a head lice problem, which indie rock band was banned from the Fry household, which one of us got married recently and we introduce a banger of a new gameshow - What Has Martyn Been Up To? Answers on a postcard, please.
 
As you may have seen, we have a new website - www.cacophonysessions.com. You can find all of our episodes, all our video content including Dan’s Slammin’ Seven series and our The Cacophony Sessions Meets… interview series. There will also be another episode of CAC News coming in the near future. The first half of this episode is available on YouTube. If you wish to see the whole thing, it is available by joining the Funkatier of our Patreon for £5 a month. All proceeds will be reflected in production values! Of course if money is tight, which we know it is, all of the audio will always be uploaded to all podcast platforms.

Let us know your thoughts and make sure to leave us a like or comment where possible. We’ll see you in the next one, when we’ll be covering our favourite guitar solos in “Shredder’s Revenger, or: Just Axin’ Questions.”

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
