A bumper episode for you, full of wonderful, long-format interviews. Nick speaks to Graham Gouldman, one of the country's all-time great songwriters. Best known for his role in 10CC, he has also collaborated with, and written hit songs for, innumerable peers and contemporaries. He talks with such clarity and intelligence about his career, about songrwriting, about the influence of his family and his roots. It's a great listen.

Joanna Eden is an accomplished and compelling jazz performer, and a long-time friend of The Stables. She was also Sam Smith's singing teacher for nearly 10 years. Hear her talk about working with them, her passion for jazz and her love of... Uruguay.

Simon Nicol is one of British music’s great characters. Founding member of Fairport Convention, he has the best part of forty albums under his belt and still loves performing and playing live as much as in the early days in Muswell Hill. He also, always, tells a good story and he completes a great trio of guests on today's show.
