Logo for Alex Lester - 22/04/2010

Alex, Radio 2's Dark Lord of the early mornings, presents his interactive blend of music and unique wit. The search for a name for Alex's drag queen alter-ego continues; suggestions include "Thongless Alex, Nocturnal Queen of Questionable Virtues". More cheeky nun-sense in the thread, Annie Get Your Nun, plus Alex is open to ideas for how to spend the next four weeks should his planned American Adventure not go ahead. Today's News Hank is the bearded daredevil of wonder, Richard Branson. Alex delves deep into his CD collection for the Lester's Library feature and selects a classic rock track from Budgie, and a new offering from The Magic Theatre. Alex also selects one of your choices from the Listener's Library; this morning it is a classic track given the Robert Plant treatment. There is another Album of the Week track from The Avett Brothers, and Record of the Week from Renee Fleming, plus Pause for Thought at 3.20am. Don't forget, Alex is now on Twitter, add him @alexthedarklord.
