Interesting show. Cerys is a very likable host. Here are some highlights (for those who can't access it).

Bill once made a mixed tape for Jeff Beck. The only guys who ever made me a mixed tape are the ones I eventually had to get a restraining order against – no judgments Bill.

One of Bill's hobbies is metal detecting. His daughter also wanted to do it but the detector was too heavy, so Bill invented a metal detector designed for children. I would actually like to see a picture of what he describes as his favorite find.

Bill stated that Ian was the second member of The Stones; "Brian Jones wanted to start a band and put out an advertisement. Ian was the first one to respond and join".

Bill had to choose, between Howling Wolf and Muddy Waters, who to add to the “Blues Virtual Hall of Fame”. He chose Howling Wolf and commented that Brian Jones had really loved him. He said he had known Howling Wolf and described how he had HF come to a 1975 Stones concert; the entire audience stood up and applauded him.

Bill seemed very laid back and interesting. Struck me as someone you wouldn’t mind hanging out with and throwing back a few pints. I still don’t think any female, under the age of 20, should be allowed near him. Just sayin’.
