Brian Matthew selects classics and rarities from pop's golden decade, including Blood, Sweat and Tears' eponymous second LP as his featured album.
Blood, Sweat And Tears' eponymous second LP is our featured album this week as Brian selects one track to play from both sides of the record. Listener requests include a mixed bag of rare and classic tracks from The Love Affair, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Four Seasons, The Roulettes, Aretha Franklin, and Tommy McLain.
This week's brain busting Loose Connection ties tracks by Bobby Goldsboro, The Temptations and Fleetwood Mac together.
