Roadrunner (Twice) - The Modern Lovers A double CD paying tribute to Theme Time Radio Hour – hosted by Bob Dylan. The first series aired last year & a new series is currently under way in the USA. For those that are new to the show, each programme lasts an hour & has a different theme each week, for example Drink or Mother. Each track is introduced by Dylan with his dry humour, eclectic interest & vast musical knowledge. His voice does not appear on this CD, just tracks selected from the shows. It can be regarded as the best introduction to music ever. This is the only officially-authorised release – & is compiled by the show’s producer Eddie Gorodetsky & Ace’s own Roger Armstrong. 50 tracks, representing the 50 shows of the first series of radio shows. The tracklisting reflects Dylan’s wide taste & ranges from Billie Holiday & George Jones, through Aretha Franklin to the Clash & The White Stripes.
