On this show, I'll be presenting some obscure and less obscure tracks from the 60s with a nice mixture of feel-good and melancholy. Our guest will be the highly original talent of Jan Rohrweg who will be presenting us with some vintage record picks and chatting with me about musical influences before performing some of his own unique compositions in German. As a finale, myself and Jan will perform a mixed language version of the old German protest song, "The Peatbog Soldiers" (Die Moorsoldaten). Enjoy :-)
