Description
For too long, music has been the preserve of the "Talented", the "Creative" and the "Classically Trained". But now, armed with nothing more than a microphone and too much free-time, John Foster and Tom Riley, set out to prove that passion, baseless opinions and incompetence have a place in the art world.Join us as we listen to the 100 greatest albums of all time and discuss what makes them great, or in some cases, not so great.Listen to our carefully curated selection of songs here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7r9NdWtJRhINVXcj2eUSG8
