Show Notes


And we go again for the 4th round of 80sography with brand new guests and new exciting features.

One of which is Anatomy of a Song, where we explore a hit of the 80s with a special guest.
Our first guest is songwriter Martin Page, here in his role as keyboard player on only fricking Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jnr.

Martin is normally known for his writing hits such as These Dreams and We Built This City (more of in future episodes) for now we discuss how he got involved in the song, his working relationship with Ray and his Q-Feel band partner/guitarist, Brian Fearweather, and what exactly it is he plays on the song. Plus, obviously, a quickfire round at the end.

Oh, just remembered I said Jerry Goldsmith did the score for the film and it's actually Elmer Bernstein. Sorry Elmer! RIP.
