Musician and composer Sarathy Korwar joins Tom Ravenscroft to explore John Peel's legendary record collection.

Sarathy Korwar joins Tom Ravenscroft in Suffolk to lend a hand (and two ears) in making sense of the late John Peel’s vast music archive, which is comprised of more than 120,000 albums, 12 inches and seven inches, collected over a lifetime and meticulously catalogued.

In this episode, Sarathy shares his extensive knowledge of Indian classical music, inherited by his fanatical parents (and reveals their unusual music collection).

Presenter: Tom Ravenscroft
