Welcome to Pop Tarts, Men of No Consequence's lovely bonus show, which comes at no extra cost to you dear listener.

Here's the scoop, Adam loves a good music biography, auto or otherwise. Pop Tarts offers us an insight into his opinions on these tomes.

On the second edition of this thriving spin-off series, Adam has brought radio favourite Stuart Maconie's 'Cider With Roadies'. 'Cider with Roadies is the true story of a boy's obsessive relationship with pop. A life lived through music from Stuart's audience with the Beatles (aged 3); his confessions as a pubescent prog rocker; a youthful gymnastic dalliance with northern soul; the radical effects of punk on his politics, homework and trouser dimensions; playing in crap bands and failing to impress girls; writing for the NME by accident; living the sex, drugs (chiefly lager in a plastic glass) and rock and roll lifestyle; discovering the tawdry truth behind the glamour and knowing when to ditch it all for what really matters.'

The debut solo album by Steely Dan co-creator Donald Fagan. Lauded for its crisp digital precision, sentimental and satirical lyrics, it remains a darling of the audiophiles. So what are we going to make of some razor-sharply produced bossa nova, calypso, disco, R&B, lounge music? Join Us.

Come on y'all we're going to have a wing ding!
