Comedian, writer and jazz musician Spike Milligan explains to presenter Robin Ray why certain musical moments enrich his life. It's a rare opportunity to hear Milligan talk about influential pieces of music ranging from jazz to opera. Milligan includes a performance (The Queen Of The Night's Aria) which he thoroughly enjoys because it's so "awful".

Milligan started out as a band musician in order to earn money. Music ran in his family and he played the guitar and the trumpet, before war interrupted his musical career.

First broadcast on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in July 1989.
