Fresh from confessing all about their rock 'n' roll past in the current issue of Hot Press, Horslips are the special guests on February 16 when John Kelly relives his youth on Radio One's Mystery Train.

"Horslips together again and live in RTÉ's Studio 8, I can retire now!" Kelly gushes. "When I first got interested in music, they were by far the most important band in my life – much more significant than the Beatles or the Stones."

As well as chatting to their #1 Northern Irish fan, Messrs. Fean, O'Connor, Devlin, Lockhart and Carr are recording a session for the show which goes out at 8.30pm.

Meanwhile, stay tuned to hotpress.com for details of how to win a copy of their new album, Roll Back.
