Julian Barratt, one half of comedy duo The Mighty Boosh, sits in. He opens with a wonderfully silly vision of the show as a journey on a silver dragon, backed by the strains of Vangelis. Julian recalls how influenced he was by the cover of War of the Worlds when he was young, sitting for hours drawing intergalactic wars. He plays a song 'about Lego'; some fruity jazz tuba; and plenty of songs by performers who are both actors and musicians, 'for some reason...' He also recommends The Wicker Man; Moondog; vocalist Yma Sumac, who can emulate the sounds of Peruvian animals; John McLaughlin; The Silver Apples; and Lee Hazlewood, who invented the cavernous sound of Duane Eddy.
