Not a geographical round trip but a musical tour, starting and ending with the classic 1978 self-titled album by UK, where each track is linked to the previous one by having at least one band member in common.

On the way, there are also a couple of excursions down branch lines. Dick doesn’t reveal the links until the end, so you can have fun spotting them as you listen (he says it’s pretty straightforward), or even trying to guess what’s coming next!

Something a bit different this time. A podcast of “outliers” – music that we own which doesn’t fit into our usual listening habits.

My choices range in style from Bert Kaempfert to Basement Jaxx, and in year from 1933 to 2020.
