The second of two special programmes in which Don Letts tells the story of Big Audio Dynamite - the innovative band he formed in 1984 with former Clash guitarist Mick Jones. The band's sound was unique and ahead of its time and Don's use of sampling of speech clips from films and sound effects enhanced the music greatly. Big Audio Dynamite went on to achieve great success with such songs as E=MC2 and Medicine Show but split up in 1990. Fortunately they remained on good terms and have reformed to tour and playing festivals around the world this year.
