/incoming/sparstock.jpgThe awesome Paul and Kathy Sparshott are two Sheffield music fans who are carrying on a noble tradition first launched on the day of their wedding. Each year, dozens of musicians come together months before 'Sparstock' held in Sheffield, to rehearse and then perform covers decided in secret, all in the name of charity.

Here's some highlights from last year's event, ahead of the next event, taking place on Saturday 14th September at Crookes Social Club, Sheffield.

Paul also performs as the excellent Le Menhir, which you can listen to here.

The podcast tracklist includes:

Moonage Daydream (David Bowie cover)

Over The Hills and Far Away (Nightwish cover)

Axis Of Green (Boss Keloid cover)

21st Century Schizoid Man (King Crimson cover)

Rapper's Delight (Sugarhill Gang cover)

Let's Go Crazy (Prince cover)

Wecke Mich (Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go by Wham in the style of Rammsten aka Whamstein)
