Crucial Troubadours

The Don's selections cross time, space and genre, plus his Crucial Vinyl is Missa Luba by Les Troubadours du Roi Badouin.

The Don's selections cross time, space and genre. Each week, as well as blending his favourite new music with classics from the UK, USA, Jamaica, Africa and way beyond.

Each week Don highlights a piece of Crucial Vinyl - a cherished album from his own collection This week it's Missa Luba by Les Troubadours du Roi Badouin.

Don says, "I first came across this through Lindsay Anderson's 1968 film If, and it's one of those pieces that stays with you for life. Referenced by the Clash in the song Car Jamming and also in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange, it's essentially the Latin Mass delivered in the harmonised choral style traditional to the Democratic Republic of Congo.".
