We'll remember recently departed greats Anita Pointer, Fred White of Earth, Wind, & Fire, and Terry Hall of The Specials, plus we'll spin some funky sounds from Zambia courtesy of Blackfoot and go Up Town with Joan Armatrading.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the vagaries of Spinitron, these songs are listed in reverse order. (i.e., Joan Armatrading Back to the Night is song 1, hour 1)
