An introduction to the next chapter of Belfast Music City.
Kyle pays tribute to the passing of Karl Wallinger last week. Tonight's guest, writer and ex-NME editor Stuart Bailie and Kyle chat about Karl's contribution to Waterboys' classic album, 'This is the Sea' and his broader music legacy via World Party.
Karl's contribution and arrangement skills on the opening track 'Don't Bang the Drum' inspired Kyle to think about great opening tracks and intros to both albums and singles.
Tonight's episode features samples from a diverse range of musical genres which have inspired Kyle over the years.
