Malcolm McLaren: The Game
March 27th, 2008 by Steve BowbrickPraise the Lord. A big, loopy concept album of a radio show (which has a computer game to go with it) from Malcolm McLaren. It’s an hour long and it’s about Paris and life and… you know. Need I say more? (MP3). BBC radio does this kind of one-off quite often these days but makes hardly any fuss about it. Did you read about this in the paper? Did you know about it at all? Why not, I wonder?

Maybe the BBC were embarrassed by all the comedy French accents? They were excruciatingly bad. I’m not sure if they were worse than the 80s-style computer sound effects, though.
In the same way that punk musicians didn’t know how to play their instruments, I think Malcolm McLaren had no idea about radio programmes.
