Adam Buxton

BBC Radio 6 Music is currently running a David Bowie week, with liberal sprinklings of familiar and not so familiar archive material scattered through it's schedule. In addition, it's also broadcasting a handful of one-off programmes dedicated to the great man and his music. One I'm particularly looking forward to is on Sunday at 4pm and is hosted by well known Bowie fanatic Adam Buxton.

When 6Music was facing the very real possibility of termination a few years ago, Buxton, with help from Tom Robinson, quickly produced a little song in the style of his hero to encourage people to show their support for the station. Needless to say, people power eventually won the day and 6Music was saved. Wuzza wuzza wuzza wuzza, wuzz wuzz wuzz.....


 Check out the BBC iPlayer for all the David Bowie goodies on offer this week.
