The Don's selections cross time, space and genre and include Crucial Vinyl from Suzanne Vega.

Each week, as well as blending key new releases with classics from the UK, USA, Jamaica, Africa and beyond, Don highlights a piece of Crucial Vinyl - a cherished album from his own collection. He explains why it means so much to him and features three key tracks. This week it's Nine Objects of Desire, released in 1996 by Susanne Vega.

Don says, "Best known for her more folk-inspired background, this album, like her previous release, was an altogether more electronic affair. Not quite as 'industrial' as 99.9F (released four years earlier), its left-of-centre arrangements and layered keyboards are beautifully complimented by her classically-structured songs - a good summer listen.".
