About this listen

The Unlocked interviews was recorded over a period of six months with some of music's biggest stars including Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran who is featured in two separate interviews; the bonus one has never been heard before, as Simon takes you through their second album, Rio, and goes over each track in turn, describing the writing, recording and meaning — and even singing parts of them!

Also included is an interview with a true legend, Bryan Ferry from Roxy Music, one of the 80's biggest rockers, Ian Ashbury of The Cult, three members of Blondie in two different interviews, Debbie Harry and her longtime partner Chris Stein, and the late, great Clem Burke. They talk about their early days, how they finally broke America, and their tax problems with the IRS which saw them without even a credit card for a decade.

And all three bands who toured North America together in 2025 will talk with you — Jim Kerr of Simple Minds, Marc Almond of Soft Cell, and Robbie Grey and Michael "Mick" Conroy of Modern English — share how they started out and soared up the charts. More than twelve hours of secrets, surprises, and stories await you, so enjoy.
