The guy who interrupts the conversation between Paul and Anton in Josephines is called Emmanuel.He actually released a single called Ghetto Blaster in the early 90s, a catchy little number. Well I can remember the tune anyway, which is a good job as it doesn't seem to be on youtube.

Yet another great article! I personally had never hard of "Tales From A Hard City" before, but having firstly read your piece, I hopped onto the Vimeo link, cast it from the app to my TV... and watched it all immediately! Brilliant stuff (article and documentary).

One of those odd coincidences... as I watched it I couldn't help but have a sense my path had crossed briefly with Wayne (Chadwick) in the past - and indeed it did (many moons ago I worked on developing some local radio station websites and if memory serves me Wayne either owned or had some involvement with the launch of then-named "Peak 107 fm" down in Chesterfield)!

In case anyone is wondering, he appears to be currently operating his own station (and shows on it) up in York: https://yo1radio.co.uk/team/wayne-chadwick/

Thanks again for another great article. I will be subscribing properly early doors in the new year! ~John.
