Essential Listening, episode the first. Converted using my poor MiniDisc, may it ever remain useful. Nine tracks everyone needs to hear and some you won’t mind hearing several times; mostly live and taking place in the 1970s — including a large chunk of James Brown performing on Soul Train. Peace, love, and soul-l-l! All songs are available on the YouTubes.
