Music: No Man Is An Archipelago - British Sea Power

The term "one of the best instrumentals ever" gets thrown around a lot these days in the pubs and bars of Marple - but here the label is deserved. British Sea Power wrote a song called The Great Skua for their album Do You Like Rock Music?. Now they've given it a reworking and a new title for their latest album, a soundtrack to accompany Man Of Aran - yes, the 1934 documentary about the harsh living conditions on the Aran islands near Ireland. Turn up your speakers and have a listen.
