Show Notes

Graham has been to see emerging Leeds band, English Teacher and reflects on a superb night at The Crescent. 

Charles by contrast went to see ABC with the South Bank Symphonia at York Barbican performing hits including the glorious Lexicon of Love.

Graham also discusses how Bill Ryder Jones's new album Iechyd Da hits new heights - or perhaps depths - of beautiful melancholia.

Charles and Graham discuss why Rory Stewart's Politics on the Edge is one of the best ever political memoirs - and best selling ones. Graham wonder if Stewart’s damning view of Westminster politics (under his own party's rule since 2010) is wholly justified?
