An hour of Talking Heads with an avoidance of the familiar hits and a focus on the dancing. Selected by Amy Delahunty and Mark Amery. Apologies for some record skipping in the first two tracks – it then settles into a beautiful groove.

Appreciation: Belle and Sebastian
An hour of exquisite Glaswegian indie popsters Belle and Sebastian cherry picked from nine albums over 20 years, with Mark Amery and Lotte Kellaway.
Appreciation: Kate Bush
An hour of appreciation of artist Kate Bush. No hits (well few), instead we delve deep into her sensual world. Apologies for a few moments of dead air etc. Not a great night in the studio but the music makes up for it.
Appreciation #1 – Stephin Merritt
Introducing you to the world’s greatest living songwriter you haven’t heard of. Listen here to an hour of Stephen Merritt (Magnetic Fields, Gothic Archies, The 6ths, Future Bible Heroes)
