The A to Z of Pop

with Richard Smith

Its as simple as A B C, or is it? Richard Smith takes you through an alphabetic journey of music. The The A to Z of Pop programmes focus on a letter of the alphabet and then he'll play titles or artists that begin with that letter. A simple idea I think you'll agree, but one that works extremely well, and is very listener friendly
