In this week’s episode of the Plural Pod, it’s the latest instalment of ‘From Me To You’. The format is nice and straightforward: Joel picks an album for Gareth that he’s never heard before and Gareth picks an album for Joel that he’s never heard before. After some intensive listening, they reconvene to share their thoughts. That conversation is what you can hear in today’s podcast. Gareth’s been listening to The Smashing Pumpkins’ ‘Siamese Dream’, while Joel has wrapped his ears around Sunhouse’s ‘Crazy On The Weekend’. But how did they find them? Hit play to find out.

This week’s episode of the Plural Pod is a little different. Joel is out in Japan, so Gareth flies solo with a special episode on the career of Laura Marling. There’s a consideration of her releases to date and a more in-depth look at her brand new album, ‘Patterns In Repeat’. Keep an ear for a few crate-digging voicenotes from Joel too, who checks in from his travels.

We explore the world of second-hand sales and find out some of the highest value titles snapped up recently, including a dubiously labelled heavy metal album and a vintage freakbeat seven from a short-lived UK group. Richard from Logo Fiasco Records in Carshalton gives us a view from the shop floor, plus we hear your recollections of gigs where things went horribly wrong.
