Music Weekly - featuring the Mystery Jets


This week's guests...

Friday is a day for song and laughter, so what further excuse does one need to listen to the latest edition of Music Weekly?

Ah, ok, well here's one: Blaine Harrison and Kapil Trivedi from the Mystery Jets are on the show. We like their new album, 21, and they popped by to discuss everything from their tour manager's terrible luck, to being called "daddy-ditchers", to Erol Alkan's production skills.

Another reason, right here: Razorlight drummer - and new solo artist - Andy Burrows talks about his charity album, The Colour of My Dreams, and we investigate quite who wrote that number one single America; Burrows or Mr J Borrell?

We're also joined by Guardian critic and former RR guru Dorian Lynskey to discuss this week's singles. There's general apathy towards Does It Offend You, Yeah? and their Epic Last Song, muted interest in Gardenia by Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks and a whole lot of lovin' for Lil' Wayne's Lollipop.
