He also gives us the details about his new autobiography (available now - check his website)  'A Lexicon of Life' - about growing up in Manchester; lovin' music, starting his band in Sheffield, and eventually, rocking his mega-stardom status with ABC.

About the Spotlight Conversations podcast:

Tune in as I invite friends inside my cozy linoleum free recording studio to talk about all things media - radio, television, music, film, voiceovers, audiobooks, publishing - if guests are in the spotlight, we're talkin'! Refreshingly unscripted and unusually entertaining, listen in as each guest gets real about their careers in the entertainment biz, from where they started to how it's going. Join us in my swanky studio where drinks are on ice and the conversation starters are music + media - always a deal breaker for the rock and roll homemaker!

New episodes every other Tuesday.
