Gillian Moore and Gavin Higgins help add another five tracks to the playlist.

London's Southbank Centre's Gillian Moore and composer Gavin Higgins travel from Texas to Portugal - via Belgium and Suffolk - with Cerys and Jeffrey as they add five more tracks.

Gillian Moore, author and Artistic Associate of London's Southbank Centre, and Ivor Novello-winning composer Gavin Higgins join Cerys Matthews and Jeffrey Boakye as they add five more tracks to the playlist in the penultimate show of this series.

The journey takes them from the accordions of Texas to the mellow sounds of Portugal via the ploughed fields of Belgium and the raging seas of Suffolk, and they are joined on the line by the singer and composer Vashti Bunyan.
