11 A Song For Eurotrash by Various Artists

This month sees the first reviewed album on the podcast that is not by a set artist or act. This album from 1998, was not only a homage (I think...?!?!) to the Eurovision Song Contest but also a tie-in to the late night Channel 4 programme in the UK, Eurotrash.

The album contains a range of Eurovision and Eurovision adjacent fayre and might have left many people watching the accompanying episode or listening to the album how or why they got these acts to do these songs.... Some songs are straight covers, some are brand new songs but there are also a couple of old songs that snuck in under the radar. This CD, as was the TV show, was all VERY 90s and therefore some of it has not aged well... In fact some of the ideas were questionable to begin with... 

We have a very short news round up at the start and finish with the reveal of the next review (which also a bit of a first!) but will be the last of 2024!

This particular album is not available on streaming services but the "A song for Eurotrash" TV episode is findable on youtube as are many of the individual songs too.
