The Don's selections cross time, space and genre and include Crucial Vinyl from Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley.

Each week, as well as blending his favourite new music with classics from the UK, USA, Jamaica, Africa and way 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 Welcome to Jamrock, released by Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley in 2005.

Don says, "This Grammy-winning album by Bob Marley's son established Damian Marley as Jamaica's premier reggae artist. By combining old-school riddims with new-school digital dancehall grooves and songs that moved between serious social commentary and straight-up party tunes, he did his father proud.".
