Or, more accurately,  in the words of a French composer speaking to a young Burt Bacharach “never ever feel embarrassed or discomforted by a melody that people can remember or whistle”

There have been too many obituaries over this last month to do justice to all those who have passed but we'll make an exception for Edson Arantes Do Nascimento. Here's a short celebration of the 1970 world cup winning Brazilian team with Pelé taking centre stage. Directed by Douglas Hart, featuring the music of Primal Scream and first broadcast on BBC 2 back in 1994.

Today's playlist is inspired by Dilla Time by Dan Charnas, the one book we managed to finish reading this year.

Not just a biography it's also a history of rhythm, an explanation of what made James DeWitt Yancey unique and an exploration of his legacy.

Not a Christmas themed show. Not a round-up of the year. Just some tunes lying at the bottom of our Santa sack that we meant to squeeze into a show this year but never quite got around to it. Until now.

It makes for some unlikely bedfellows. Not sure that Bob Lind should be rubbing up against Bog-shed or that Dollar should be sitting side-by-side with Orielles' remixes but that's where we find ourselves at the end of 2022.
