Tom Service's current trail - delivered in his usual breathless style - praising the sheer diversity of the items featured on Essential Classics serves as a useful confirmation that I have better things to do of a morning. While he doesn't confirm that one is most unlikely to hear many substantial items, the implication is clear.
