The key word this week is white (surprise, surprise). A rebel rousing live version of White Lightnin' kicks off the programme, quickly followed by a country flavoured triple bill, through some 60s freak music and ending up with some raucous noise.

Deniz Baykal: man of action

If the audio stops playing, press stop and allow time for the stream to load.

This week, we pay tribute the the former leader of Turkey's CHP party, Deniz Baykal. The great leader has ably steered his party through thick and thin, yet in 30 odd years never all the way to government. He was caught with his pants down (but his socks still on), when a "sex tape" found its way on to YouTube. Since YouTube is banned in Turkey, he really should have gotten away with it.
