This week on the show we're featuring the striking and excellent record of Nick Cave covers from Nell Smith — Where The Viaduct Looms. Made in collaboration with The Flaming Lips, after being called out in the audience attending their shows as a child, it's a pretty remarkable achievement of a record. We'll feature various other Cave covers and lots of new music besides.
