Hello, partygoers!

This week Mary and David are still in beautiful Brazil as David goes coconuts for Tropicália!

Yes, it’s the end of our mixtapes portion of the Listening Party as David and Mary continue to celebrate the wild and provocative music of Brazilian political protest music of the late Sixties/early Seventies.
