Chris Hawkins - Carry On Hawkins

Haven't heard the Hawk show before? Well, if you're an early riser you could help Chris, and his long-suffering producer Slev, pick a 5.15 track - the first request of the day on 6 Music - you can pick anything you like. There's also a BBC weather forecast from one of the forecasters off the telly - it really is a weather report like no other. And if you like useless bits of musical information then The Rockbook Files will fill you in on what happened on this day in history. However, we think the best part of the show has to be the ridiculous chat and bickering in between the great records, new and old. Today's music came from the likes of Nick Drake, Zola Jesus, The Avalanches, LL Cool J, Joni Mitchell, Wire, The Bluetones, Warpaint and Placebo. And Nurse Sara in Taunton picked Kings of Leon to provide her Exit Music this morning.
