The Don's selections cross time, space and genre and include the soundtrack of O Brother, Where Art Thou as Crucial Vinyl.

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 he selects the soundtrack of O Brother, Where Art Thou?, released in 2000.

Don says, "Breaking my own rules with another compilation here, but this is a standout soundtrack from a standout Cohen Brothers film. The mix of bluegrass, blues, country and folk were conceived as an integral part of the movie, and are all appropriate to the time and the story's setting in Mississippi.".
