My radio show Amazing Songs & Other Delights #97 – The Of Sea & Cake edition is broadcasted Monday 1 and 8 June, 3-4pm (London time) on Yé Yé Radio: yeyeradio.com to (or on the app).
For some reason I had the programme title for a while. Probably, because of Sea and Cake, the band that opens and closes the show. Since I recently went ocean swim again and I like cake, it was a perfect match. Ideas and life catching and matching up.
The songs and instrumentals aren’t necessarily about cake, sweets, or the ocean, although enough are. Like Savoy Truffle written by George Harrison for The Beatles’ White Album is literally about chocolates, and was written for Eric Clapton and his love of said sweets. For The Of Sea & Cake edition I picked the live version Dhani Harrison singings his father’s song.
The Beach Boys’ Catch A Wave is another literal song, this time about the ocean and catching a wave to surf.
Tracklist:
01: The Sea and Cake – Four Corners
02: Dhani Harrison (Live at George Fest) – Savoy Truffle
03: Air – La Femme d’Argent
