Sex, Ys and videotape

Deniz Baykal: man of action

If the audio stops playing, press stop and allow time for the stream to load.

This week, we pay tribute the the former leader of Turkey's CHP party, Deniz Baykal. The great leader has ably steered his party through thick and thin, yet in 30 odd years never all the way to government. He was caught with his pants down (but his socks still on), when a "sex tape" found its way on to YouTube. Since YouTube is banned in Turkey, he really should have gotten away with it.

All in the mind

This week, we go take a historical journey through the emotion states of rock and roll, which is what it's all about. And it's not all about the love; we have outrage and panic from the optimistic 60s, confusion, depression and apathy from the 70s , and anxiety, fear and loneliness in the 80s. Enjoy.
