Usually, William leaves it till the final programme of a series to feature some of the discs that had to be left out of his previous programmes. But as next week's programme (which is the last in the series) coincides with the beginning of NZ Music Month, he'll be doing his duty in that direction. So... this penultimate programme is his wrap up. He features St Vincent, Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks, Linda Perhacs and Donny Hathaway. Then he pays tribute to two artists who've died this year: Jesse Winchester and Pete Seeger.
