MixTape #045 (Andy Gillespie)

My guest mixer this week is Andy Gillespie

Originally from Middleton, Manchester, Andy has for many years lived in Simi Valley, California. As well as being on good terms with previous guests David Gedge and Terry de Castro, we also get to hear about the time he played pool with Mark E Smith and Eleni...
