 Tomorrow evening (Saturday, April 26th) at 6pm, the excellent UK digital radio station Planet Rock is worth tuning into via DAB, digital cable/satellite, or online. "My Planet Rocks" returns for its fifth series, with Mark Jeeves hosting another string of exclusive interviews with the Rock Gods choosing the tracks.
Tomorrow's show (repeated on Tuesday, again at 6pm) features the ever-entertaining Storm Thorgerson, talking about his long career, creating iconic artwork for the likes of Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel, Black Sabbath, and many others - most famously, of course, being Pink Floyd. Don't miss it! More details at PlanetRock.co.uk.
The station, which also hosts Guy Pratt's unmissable weekly show on Sunday nights at 7pm, was due to be closed down at the end of March as part of a larger cost-cutting exercise (now extended to the end of May), but it is now looking like the station has been saved. Negotiations are still ongoing but things are looking hopeful!

Last night, legendary DJ and interviewer Jim Ladd announced that Roger Waters would be dropping by to chat live on radio station 95.5 KLOS in Los Angeles, at 8pm PT tonight (April 24th).
Jim Ladd was the voice of the DJ on Roger's 1987 album, Radio KAOS, and the pair have been friends for many years. With Roger's US and European tour starting on Sunday night, we hope that Roger will be quizzed on the tour, and in particular, his plans for what will follow - one or more new albums, as hinted at for some time now, and if there are any intentions to release a DVD of the DSOTM tour.
KLOS streams live at 955klos.com. Our thanks to Ed for the head's up on this interview!
