Gomez 'Bring It On' with Ben Ottewell

On this episode of the XS Long Player we welcome the gravel voiced Ben Ottewell onto the podcast to talk about Gomez's 1998 debut 'Bring It On'. This conversation with Ben about the making of the album is a great reminder what a brilliant collection of songs the album is, how original and different it felt at the time of release and how meteoric the rise of the band was in the late 90s - not least winning the Mercury Music Prize over The Verve and Massive Attack.
