S1E2 - Billy Bragg and the Deep North
Manage episode 285859067 series 2883165
Episode Notes
In the Deep North - the conservative Brisbane of the 1970s & 80s - 4ZZZ was the radio station that spoke directly to the disenchanted, told their stories and played their music.
Not only did 4ZZZ champion local bands on air, they brought acts to Brisbane at a time when international - even interstate - touring artists would overlook the city.
That's how Billy Bragg, the bard of the working class, ended up at the Easts Leagues Club on a sweltering evening in March 1987 for a 4ZZZ fundraiser, and a three way friendship formed between a city, a singer and a radio station.
Thanks to Wondrous Fair, The Parameters and of course Billy Bragg for letting us use their music throughout this episode.
From A to Triple Zed was produced as part of 4ZZZ's 45th birthday celebrations, if you want to support radio that's been independent and live since 1975 you can make a donation online now - https://support.4zzz.org.au/donations
