The Sampler for Tuesday 14 February 2012

Nick Bollinger discusses the improvisational looseness of Joe Henry’s new album, plus the recent recording Henry has produced for Irish singer-songwriter Lisa Hannigan; and he reassess The Doors, on the fortieth anniversary of Jim Morrison’s swansong, L.A. Woman.
