INXS - Never Tear Us Apart
When the stadium-filling Australian pub rockers INXS lost their charismatic frontman Michael Hutchence in 1997, the band played on, taking on a handful of fill-ins before launching the search for a new singer through a reality television show. Now defunct as an outfit, INXS's Tim Farriss and Kirk Pengilly tell Sam Wicks why they initially chose to solider on.

Audiophilia: The Secret Life of Audiophiles 2
"High fidelity" means being true to an original acoustic event; recreating music that is exactly as it sounded when it was recorded. In Audiophilia, Julie Hill talks to sound system, hi-fi and speaker makers passionate about doing justice to the tunes they love: Ron from south London and his majestic Sputnik speakers; Bostonian boat builder Toby Shaugnessy and his giant horns, 50s retro raggamuffin Marty Vital's big bass and the man whose speakers made Rodney Hide cry.
