Stuart Maconie is a renowned Sprout devotee and friend of Paddy, so his interviews are always something a little special. This one was for the Andromeda Heights promotion, and probably done at the same time as the Q interview from the same year. Not sure where it came from, but I’m assuming BBC Radio 1 or 2.
Looking at BBC Genome, this is most likely from Radio 1 as he didn’t start doing shows for Radio 2 until October 1998. This seems to be from the very end of Stuart Maconie’s time on the station as he doesn’t appear in any Radio 1 listings after July 1997.
I have it listed as BBC Radio 1 The Stuart Maconie Show, February 23, 1997.
