No, it’s just a playlist. Nothing to see here but the tunes. Happy Juneteenth!Happy Heat Wave, too.
Lots of oldies from Chuck Brown to George Clinton, saluting freedom, the weather, and the good old summertime.
New this week — Hungrytown’s highly evocative “Circus for Sale,” M Vaughan’s optimistic “All Good,” and Las Nubes rock-heavy guitars.
Plus the usual, “more”…
