Isn't That Special

The pervading mood is very negative as we discuss theft of propery, leaving cultural events early and bring up the thorny issue of overhauling our moribund show format. Regular listeners may be excited that we have a double gong close to the show. Or not. You can watch the special on Amazon or wherever you illegaly download streams on the internet: Road Work. You should watch it before listening to the review.  Theme music: El Cha Cha Man by Juanitos. Juanitos, led by Juan Naveira, is the single French rock'n'roll and soul band mixing latin soul, exotica, acid jazz, punk, vocal pop and sometimes reggae roots in the Jackie Mittoo style. They are very good.
