Marking both National Album Day and World Mental Health Day, Stuart plays music from some of his favourite albums and explores the power of music to provide comfort. His featured album is Lloyd Cole And The Commotions' acclaimed 1984 debut album 'Rattlesnakes', one of Stuart's most cherished albums of all time and one that he revisits again and again.
