Episode notes

"Era-Defining" is one word (well, two words) to describe the album featuring on today's XS Long Player Podcast as Jim goes back to 1992 to talk about Stereo MC's iconic thrid album 'Connected'.

Rob Birch talks about how their work changed with the onset of the 'Sample Wars', being Mercury Music Prize nominated alongside Suede and New Order and what happened after this album was released, why did it take the band a decade to release another record.
