Desert Island Discs – what the bond team will be taking to the BBC radio studios, should we get the nod.

Without further comment, we give you the eight songs that each of the team would take to a desert island.  In keeping with the spirit of the radio show, we have also given them the Complete Works of the Smiths, and a copy of Keynes’s General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money.
