I have always liked a few tracks that I have heard, but listening to Ray Davies on the radio just reminded me that I don't have any.Rather than just buy a collection, any fans care to recommend some albums?Steve

The new series starts tonight on BBC 2 at 22:00. It's a similar format to the previous series; a 30 minute live show tonight, with a longer edited show on Friday (23:35-00:35). I understand the live show is earlier in the week to allow extra editing...
