Classic Albums. Hosted by Stevie Nix
Not all albums stand the test of time, but plenty do and Australian music critic Stevie Nix will bring one to you each week. He'll cover all eras and most genres and tell you why each record is so revered and, equally, why it deserves to be. And he only uses six songs to do it.

Walk Through Fire by Yola
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Walk Through Fire is a breathtaking fusion of country, soul, folk, and Americana. Produced by Dan Auerbach, these 12 songs present a fully realised artistic vision, one that embraces both joy and pain, light and shadow – and time has only strengthened it as a musical statement. What impressed critics upon its release – the songcraft, production, Yola's extraordinary vocals – has proven to be just the surface of its depths.
Featured songs:
Faraway Look
Shady Grove
Ride Out In The Country
It Ain't Easier
Deep Blue Dream
