Celebrating the release of Kim's "Pop Don't Stop" retrospective box set I talk to my brilliant friend,  the man , the legend , Mr Ricky Wilde. Such an honour to catch up with someone responsible for so many incredible songs and productions with his brilliant sister Kim including "You Came" which I often refer to as the perfect pop record. In this chat he talks about his inspirations and love of early punk and electronic music both elements of which are so evident in his work. Some incredible stories behind "Kids In America" and how the worldwide phenomenon of Kim's version of "You Keep Me Hanging On" very nearly didn't happen and how his life was changed by a wasp!. Ricky is without doubt one of the loveliest humans I know and such a pleasure to talk to. Hope you enjoy.
