LIST 155 - 07/05/15 (Election Night special)
Hello again,
Thanks for waiting a few weeks whilst other pursuits were, um, pursued. At long last, and having ducked out of doing one in 2010, here we have the first ever That Music List set to coincide with a British General Election!
I find the whole thing gruesomely compelling and expect I'll be up all night sitting amid an ever-increasing litter of emptied ale bottles, but the slightly more sane among you may instead like to commit 75 minutes or so to the following - every track either about (or at the very least namechecking) politics, politicians or elections...
Back again with something else nice a week on Friday. See thee 'til then.
