With The Big Tent Festival in Fife coming up in an exclusive interview Rosanne Cash talks about her on-going passion for Scotland and why the discovery that Clan Cash has its roots in deepest Fife makes it feel like a journey home. She also talks about 'The List', her latest album which was born of quite literally a list of songs handed down to her by her legendary father, Johnny. Also on the programme Karine Polwart discussing her new Radio Scotland series 'Karine Polwart - The Studio One Sessions' which gets under way on Thursday 22nd with Emily Smith & Jamie McLennan. You can hear a terrific preview track from the series on this week's Cafe. With Now That's What I Call Music launching its 76th edition this month Olaf Furniss considers the compilation album's contribution to popular music. Plus we have the woman who's been described as 'The British Edith Piaf' - the marvellous Barb Jungr drops by to preview her Edinburgh Festival show 'The Men I Love' and talk about her highly celebrated approach to song interpretation.
