Pineapple pieces in perpetuity

Shaun takes care of teatime with a freewheeling mix of music and messages from the murmuration.

Shaun takes care of teatime with a freewheeling mix of music and conversation that journeys from Latin lessons to a lifetime supply of pineapple and the limited number of camera angles available to the over 50s.

This week's playlist includes some Chicago Soul from The Four Shells, a gorgeous piece of vocal harmony from The Delta Rhythm Boys, a memorable one-hit-wonder from The Maisonettes, one of the biggest belters of the 90s courtesy of Republica, and a double dose of Al Green, to celebrate his 80th birthday.
