The first Amazing Songs & Other Delights of the year, number 17 The a Bit of Jazz, a Dash of Soul and There is Bond Too edition is avialable on Yé Yé Radio mixcloud. Soul and Jazz aren’t always literal or what is expected – Bryan Ferry singing The In Crowd, a Billy Page song, is an example. Faith No More’s Evidende another. The idea had been in the back of my mind for a while. When I heard It Ain’t Over by Orquestra Jazz de Leiria feat. David Fonseca I knew it was a done deal. The show is also an homage to Serafim, my maternal grandfather whose records – mostly 78rpm shellac ones – like Glenn Miller Orchestra’s Pennsylvania 6-500 still existed when I was a child. Last, but not least, it is also a thank you to all the boys I went dance with during a not so pleasent time in my life and the Djs who turned it into You Are My Sunshine. Justin Timberlake’s LoveStoned / I Think She Knows was a by then must dance. And, of course, there is Bond. Be it Skyfall sang by Adele or No Time To Die sang by Billie Eilish . And more, much more.
