Episode #222: Badinage


The second straight show with songs from the heart of the 1970s. It's a confident blend of artists you may be familiar with and those you may have forgotten if you'd heard of them in the first place. This program also answers the musical question, "What was on Side 2 of that album that had the Star Wars disco suite on Side 1?" A New Orleans second-line funk suite, it turns out.
