Each week I'll be presenting an hour's worth of classic tracks based on a different particular genre or theme, from classic British post-punk, to East Coast hip-hop, to 60 jazz, soul and funk, and everything in between.

In order too justify the vast expense of time, effort, and finances I have invested on my long range wifi antenna.

In this one-off gameshow, contestants need to separate John Keats from Jimmy Eat World, Samuel Taylor Coleridge from Sum-41, and Mary Robinson from Mayday Parade.
