Leeds music documentary

Leeds radio station Radioaire produced a radio documentary titled 40 Years of Leeds Music. The documentary features a ton of interview clips with bands that were either Leeds natives (Kaiser Chiefs, Gang Of Four, The Wedding Present, Soft Cell, Utah Saints, Sisters Of Mercy/Mission U.K.), or made an impact on the scene there. Many different genres are covered--classic rock, punk, goth, indie, house, and even top 40 (beware of a full Spice Girls song at ~27 minutes in). Listen to the hour-long documentary below (the program starts with "I Predict A Riot" by Kaiser Chiefs).
