ok awesome. Yeah Eddy Grant is so good. I love that record. The others arent as great but Walking on Sunshine has gottan so many plays over the years. And yeah Ruder than You is so great. I love that organ and those super sloppy drums. so cool
Thanks again for a thoroughly enjoyable show. Hearing Sly reminds me how underrated he was. I recently finished his memoir He came up with the nickname Sly when a grammar school friend misspelled his name Slyvester instead of Sylvester.
Peggy Lee is incredible. Thanks for featuring 3 of her songs. Since it’s obvious you love Peggy, take a listen to Blossom Dearie, a peer of Peggy’s who hailed from Durham, NY, not far from where you live.
I didn’t catch the name of the Grace Jones song you played.
Trying to adjust to the biweekly cadence by fully exploring the recommendations. To that end, Eddy Grant! Who knew!?
Ruder Than You is also the tops

Another episode that makes me wish I had a porch swing.
running away is one of my favourites! nice call playing this one!
Perfect soundtrack for this fancy hotel birthday weekend. Wire to wire bangers. Gracias.
Looking forward to this one! For one thing, Sly Stone is completely undervalued as a singer so great to see you talk about him that way.
Yes totally agree. Such a unique and powerful voice - especially on the slower stuff.
