What the Fontaine?!: Black History Month, pt 2 (02/24/23)

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

February is Black History Month, which gives me a good excuse to play a lot of great music from many time periods and styles. This week (pt 2) I’ve got music from Queen Latifah, John Lee Hooker, Bad Brains, Stevie Wonder, De La Soul, Peter Tosh, etc. Tune in 9-11pmEST.
