Broadcaster Stephen Foster recalls interviewing brilliant songwriting duos, in his latest On Air in Suffolk column.
When Ipswich faced Charlton in the play-offs in 1998 I must have been the only Town fan who bought a copy of our opponents’ CD release. I covered the second leg at The Valley for BBC Radio Suffolk but my top priory when I arrived was to get my hands on Athletic’s latest club song, written and recorded by a favourite group of mine - Squeeze.
I have been a big fan of the south Londoners’ music since the very early days when Jools Holland was in the line-up. The driving forces behind Squeeze, then and now, are the songwriting legends Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook.
