Lynval Golding and Horace Panter join Steve to chat about The Specials new live album Live From the Cathedral. This will be the band's final album, following the passing of Terry Hall in 2022. “Live From The Cathedral”, released on 10 July, captures the raw excitement of the band’s triumphant four homecoming nights live from the ruins of Coventry Cathedral in the summer of 2019. The pair talk to Steve about these home town shows and the band's legacy.

Plus, Steve has new music from The Mystery Jets and Ellur, and Eels talk us through their track I Like Birds.
