A few jams recently have been prompted - like this one - from the really rather good BBC R4 On Music Podcast. In this case, "Ziggy Stardust Came from Isleworth", a potted history of the rise and fall of Vince Taylor. Well worth a listen - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00tdpz8
(even if I do prefer the Clash version)
