Tim’s Listening Party – It’s a podcast where Tim Burgess from The Charlatans celebrates a groundbreaking and era defining album along with the musician or band who made it happen. 

It is a bit like Desert Island Discs, in the way that the show contains excerpts of each track and it gives the guest the opportunity to reflect. And just like the podcast version of Desert Island Discs, the music itself has been shortened due to rights reasons. Recent guests include  Skunk Anansie’s Skin and The Bangles’ Susanna Hoffs.
