The 1970 England World Cup squad sing an earnest There'll Always Be an England. Jarvis wonders when, exactly, does summer begin? Then he's joined by Turner Prize-winning artist Mark Leckey. He explains why he thinks rock isn't as energetic and political as in the past: once music was a great way to communicate to the world and now there are many other ways to do that. He also suggests that youth movements develop very differently now that we have the internet, and warns against nostalgia and aligning yourself with an era that never really existed. There's a spoken word piece by rockabillies Heavy Trash, The Pill. Jarvis thinks about the summer again and plays the sound of twittering greenfinches. And Wilco: Are They Any Good? Birthdays: Levi Stubbs and Brenda from Toronto.
