Miles Hunt joins Jim Salveson to share the stories, insight and inspiration behind this classic album including how the bands US tour inspired its sound, how long-term member Martin Bell was only supposed to deliver a solo on this album but ended up joining the band and how little the band had ready to go when they stepped into the studio.
