Jarvis explains why an unlikely Duane Eddy track reminds him of 9/11; he asks listeners what songs take them back to that day. Recently, Jarvis has enjoyed Super 8 at the cinema, Lang Lang at the Proms and the Mercury Prize coverage. On This Day 50 years ago, the World Wildlife Fund was set up, in 1609 Henry Hudson discovered Manhattan Island and in 1847 the song Oh Susannah was first played – although that's up for debate. There's another chance to hear Laurie Anderson read her story Lolabelle. We finish with an upbeat northern soul song that reminds one listener of 9/11 and also helps him to face the future with hope. Birthdays: Richard Ashcroft, Alan Bergman, Leo Kottke, DH Lawrence (we hear his poem about pianos), Carl Zeiss, Herbert Lom (on a horror film he rejected), Arvo Pärt and John Martyn.
