NSTS episode 53 is part two of my chat with former Melody Maker journalist Chris Charlesworth. Chris has so many personal stories about rock stars like David Bowie that I just sit back and let him lay them all out.

Chris talks about Bowie’s death and what it was like to be his press officer, which ABBA member had stage fright, how the bass player is the secret weapon of most bands, and the celebrity he found himself sitting behind at Wembley during a Stone Roses show.
 

Charlesworth’s playlist:

David Bowie – Heroes

ABBA – One Of Us

REM – Perfect Circle

Stone Roses – Ten Storey Love Song

Gillian Welch – Elvis Presley Blues
