What the Fontaine?!: RIP Toots and RBG (9/18/20)

“What the Fontaine?!: You never know what you’ll hear next on this fun mix of tunes from across the decades and musical genres.”

Just before leaving to come up to WRIR, I heard the news that Ruth Bader Ginsburg died. Oh no! I’ll find a song for her. Plus I’ve got Toots (RIP) + the Maytals and other reggae songs, and so much more. Tune in 9-11pmEDT.
