Dermot has live tracks from Will Young, Jimmy Webb and chats to Dave Grohl about the release of the Foo Fighters' Greatest Hits album.

Will Young first rose to fame as the winner of Pop Idol in 2002 and, and after four multi-platinum albums, he releases a greatest hits album this month. Never one to fit the manufactured pop star mould, Will has also appeared as a panellist on Question Time, a Stephen Frears movie (Mrs Henderson Presents) and a sell-out Noel Coward revival at Manchester's Royal Exchange.

Jimmy Webb is a performer and composer behind popular hits such as Wichita Lineman, The Highwayman and By The Time I Get To Phoenix, which Frank Sinatra declared "the greatest torch song ever written". The only artist to ever receive Grammy awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration, Jimmy has also written for film and television. His latest album, which also features the Webb Brothers, was released last month.
