Thanks to Johnny Wake, frontman of the Glorious Youth Parade, Sitka’s sprawlingest dance band, for sharing the ten songs he would choose if he was shipwrecked on a deserted island this week’s Earbones (Fridays at 8pm).

Elmore James – Dust My Broom
David Bowie – Oh! You Pretty Things
The Clash – White Man in Hammersmith Palais
