Stuart chats to Peter Hammill of Van Der Graaf Generator about his solo albums which have just been re-released in a massive new box set.

You'll also get your weekly dose of 60s English psychedelia, cool Nordic ambient jazz and French doom folk.

Plus Mancunian guitar impressionists the Durutti Column supply the featured album with their confusingly titled debut The Return of the Durutti Column. That sound you can hear is its sandpaper sleeve destroying the rest of your record collection.
