Once again, we dig into our bag of tricks and go back forty years, this time covering music that debuted in April 1968. Once again, we are amazed by the overall quality and diversity of what became available.
The singles are all catchy, and most of them are beautiful, while the album tracks once again redefine the state of popular music. To keep things interesting, we also dig up a few sleepers from this era. Listen up and see what you think. Here’s a list of songs from this show;
1) Ain’t No Way – Aretha Franklin
2) Delilah – Tom Jones
3) Take Time to Know Her – Percy Sledge
