Although #70 was broadcast a few weeks ago, a case of synchronicity made it available on the blog just in time for Valentine’s Day. Starting off with exotica mastermind Martin Denny and delving into bossa nova and easy listening from João Donato & Horst Jankowski et al to funky stuff via Roy Ayers, The Bamboos and Bobby Womack, this show is tailor made for the Valentine’s brunch.
