Desmond hunts through his personal record collection of more than 250,000 tracks for songs and music on the theme Office Life; what you will not hear at the water cooler.

Desmond shares good tunes, some unexpected ones and a few you may never have heard before from the worlds of classical music, pop standards, jazz, shows and films. All served with a sprinkling of interpretations from modern artistes who dig into the music of yesterday to make the 'music go 'round' today. This week he sorts through his personal record collection for songs and music related to the theme of 'Office life'. What you won't hear at the water cooler.
