In hour 1, we serve up fresh funk from Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, hear a most unusual Neil Young cover...soul style, and wrap up with a quietly beautiful take on a civil rights anthem. In hour 2, we hear from "Fifth Beatle," hear Babatunde Lea's beautiful take on Leon Thomas' "The Creator Has a Master Plan," and break for a set hosted by the late great WERU dj Charlie Oldham.
