Unit 4 + 2 - Concrete And Clay (1965) Today we're going to keep that Latin beat while we hobble on over to this London construction site and check out Unit 4 + 2. Although the band name sounds like an industrial band from the 90's we actually have a sweet pop rock group with 4 vocalists plus the 2, referring to the drummer and bassist, with a number 1 hit in the UK in 1965.  The lead singer here is Tommy Moeller, who is the brother of Billy Moeller (aka the actor who toured as Whistling Jack Smith) which we listened to a few days ago.  Now let's grab our hammers and hard hats and here we go...    

Xavier Cugat & His Orchestra - La Playa (Aruba) (1966) Say what? It's time for a little Latin Space Age Pop as spring tries to push its way through winter and the sun blinds us reflecting off the melting snow. This intermission is brought to you by musician, artist, director, and restaurateur Xavier Cugat. Now relax, put the sunglasses on and enjoy...    

Chris Spedding - School Days (1976) Today we're going nice and easy with some soul soothing slick sounding seventies Spedding shredding and reminiscing about bringing his guitar to school and sweet times never ending. Hope y'all have a good night. "One thing before I go I'd like you all to know My advice to you, if you can use it If you start rockin', you ain't never gonna lose it "        

Whistling Jack Smith - I Was Kaiser Bill's Batman (1967) Hey everybody. Let's get March started with this beautiful dream of a song by our ol' buddy Whistling Jack. He sure can whistle, eh?
