Extra Inches – Decades: The 1970’s Vol.6
I went to bed on Monday night not knowing what I would record today – Tuesday, October 5. I came down into the office this morning and saw the ‘Disco Gold’ CD lookiing at me. It all became clear. More adventures from the 70’s ensued and twelve magnificently varied tracks are to be found in this sixty-three minute edition that’ll make your day sound brighter. The playlist is below but you’ll need to download for the Bobby Shad track alone. Is this where Sunlightsquare got their inspiration for their forthcoming album? A sixty-five piece band? Don’t be ridiculous! But it sounds incredible nearly 40 years on and for that visionary moment we should be grateful.
Volume 7 will be here before you know it, but for now, enjoy the moment. [BH]
