The first secondary song this hour is Tommy James and the Shondells with Draggin' the line followed by Karen Carpenter for All we know. The english name of the next performer is Wolf but of course in Spanish it is more likely you will recognise him as Lobo and his recording is Me and you and a dog named Boo. Stay a while by the Bells and then the composer's version by Kenny Tobias. There is much more for your listening pleasure to discover.
