Nothing will beat those scenes when Jordan Henderson got his hands on Liverpool’s sixth European Cup and lifted Ol’ Big Ears high into the Madrid sky to the utter delight of Reds supporters in the Wanda Metropolitano and all over the world. But that was just a culmination of a magical weekend in the Spanish capital. And one of the definite highlights was when thousands upon thousands of Koppites crammed into the Fan Park before the final itself. With music from the likes of BOSS Night favourites Ben Burke, Kieran Molyneux and Jamie Webster, Chelcee Grimes, a very special performance from Cast singer-songwriter John Power, plus a DJ set from Colin Murray and an appearance from The Anfield Wrap’s John Gibbons and Neil Atkinson, it was a swelteringly hot afternoon to remember. Producer Michael Pearson was out in Madrid for the ECHO and he captures the mood in Plaza Felipe II in this special audio portrait, which includes music from Webster, an interview with Dan Nicholson, who is one of the men behind BOSS night, and an interview with and music from Power, whose spine-tingling rendition of You’ll Never Walk Alone closes the podcast.
