A few episodes back we had an episode about albums released in the year David Hepworth considers to be the annus mirabilis of music: 1971.

That, coincidentally, was the year in which the music journalist turned 21. So it got me thinking: might the music released in the year I turned 21 be significant enough to put together an argument that actually 2001 was the best year for music ever?

Listen to the podcast and you can judge for yourself.

Once you're done listening to this, head over to Spotify to hear the songs in full.
