Friday evenings in the UK used to have a singles review show on Radio 1 programme called "Round Table", often hosted by Richard Skinner. I remember very well Morrissey appearing on that show and reviewing with disdain a single by Robert Plant called 'Little by Little'. Morrissey 'corrected' Skinner saying something like "no, actually it's Leedle by Leedle" because that's how Plant sang. Morrissey also mentions that the 'blurb' or promotional material accompanying it said "expect the unexpected" which Morrissey described as "a SCANDALLOUS waste of ink". I think that this single nudged the charts in June 1985. Can anyone identify the date that the programme aired? Anyone got a copy? Can anyone confirm that in the same show Morrissey reviewed Terry & Gerry's skiffle single 'Clothes Shop' and said "I like it.....don't know why".
Passions Just Like Mine lists appearances on Round Table and the successor 'Singled Out' but not one from May/June '85. I'd like to help fill in a gap.
