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, he highlights a piece of Crucial Vinyl - a cherished album from his own collection. This week it's Coles Corner, released by Richard Hawley in 2005.

Don says, "Echoing crooners of a bygone age, Richard Hawley's fourth album seamlessly mixes elements of 40s pop, country and rock 'n' roll to conjure up an atmosphere that flies in the face of much contemporary music, and therein lies its virtue. We're talking well-crafted melody-based songs that tap into the timeless role of music - some would say vintage, but it's what Richard is.".
