Easy listening bandleader takes on tropicalia, funk, psychedelia, folk and soul - often at the same time. Expect Santana, Marvin Gaye and Sly Stone covers.

Sunday morning listening: Forever Changes by Love
When I saw Shack last week they did an excellent cover of A House Is Not A Motel, which reminded me that they were briefly Arthur Lee's backing band in the early 90s.
Time to enjoy the original though. Perfect listening for a sunny day (or any day for that matter).

Japanese ambient/new age piano music from 1987. Tranquil.

Friday afternoon listening - Tone Float by Organisation
Kraftwerk before they called themselves Kraftwerk. It doesn't sound anything like the Kraftwerk we know and love, in fact for the most part it doesn't really sound like music. Still, at least it gave OMD a title for their second album.
Original copies go for hundreds of pounds. Thank god for bootlegs.
