Merry Christmas from the Classic Albums studio. A real treat this week; a special guest demonstrates that even geeks have friends. The topic is guilty pleasures with 'Enya' by Enya, 'Misplaced Childhood' by Marillion and 'Fallen' by Evanescence.

Will the chuntering continue, or will a third person ensure Stephen and Gary are on their best behaviour.

Listen in and find out.

Two corkers this week. Surely there won't be any disagreement about either of these thoroughbreds. The Pogues outstanding second 'Rum Sodomy and the Lash' vying for praise with Super Fury Animals first outing 'Fuzzy Logic'.

Also under discussion 'Winter Warmers', songs to help you while away those long winter evenings. Contributions from the blog and details of Stephen's first gang.

Listen, laugh, learn?
