In this episode, I chat with a former student, Katie, and learn more about her musical preferences. She picked up on a common thread that connected all of my songs (six degrees of Mavis Staples). This episode has everything from gospel to emo.
Her picks:
"Runaway" by Del Shannon
"Wallet" by Regina Spektor
"Hey Julie" by Fountains of Wayne
"Little Things" by Good Charlotte
"YYZ" by Rush
My picks:
“Take My Hand” by Ben Harper & The Blind Boys of Alabama
“Don’t Wanna Fight” by Alabama Shakes
“If All I Was Was Black” by Mavis Staples
“Grandma’s Hands” by Bill Withers
“Right On” by Galactic
