Singer-songwriter David Gray talks about his album White Ladder, which led to fame in 2001.

Series in which leading performers and songwriters talk about the album that made them or changed them.

Recorded in front of a live audience at the BBC's iconic Maida Vale Studios, each edition includes two episodes - the A-side and B-side.

In the A-side, David talks to John Wilson.

Featuring his hits Babylon, This Year's Love and Sail Away, White Ladder became one of the longest-charting in UK chart history, spending almost three consecutive years in the UK top 100, and won Gray an Ivor Novello Award for the single Babylon.

By 2017, David Gray has sold 12 million albums worldwide, received a BAFTA nomination, two Ivor Novello Awards, a Q award, two Brit nominations and a Grammy nomination.

In the B-side of the programme, it's the turn of the audience to ask the questions.
