Alun is very much a modern day troubadour - travelling around the country and writing songs about things he sees, mainly about social injustice and other weighty issues. In this special piece, entitled "Tressell And Me", Alun explores the themes behind Robert Tressell's 1910 novel "The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists", putting them into a modern day context and illustrataing the whole thing with some of his own songs.
In this show, we also feature a great interview with Barrow based singer songwriter Stuart MacFarlane and some epiphany related music from the Dan Forshaw Quartet.
