2015-05-17: Remembering the musical talents of German music producer Conny Plank, and composer and 'velvet gentleman' Erik Satie. Jarvis mentions some upcoming live gigs, exhibitions and shows on BBC radio; celebrates Norway Day; and asks listeners to suggest a song that was sampled. This year is the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta and we hear about an embroidered tribute to this document devised by artist Cornelia Parker which is on display at the British Library. Birthdays include Enya, Josh Homme, Dennis Hopper, Paul Whitehouse, Dennis Potter and Trent Reznor. Valete: BB King.
