The British Breakfast presents:
RIP Prince Philip: A Short Tribute Then Nonsense From My LP Collection
Did some research about Prince Philip and possibly identified his fave song plus another song that Elizabeth would often play when she knew she had fallen in love.
The show takes a dive after this but a fun tail spin as I pull from my personal LP collection randomly and without much thought. This turned out to be a show with many fantastic and very average covers. Putting the show together though was an absolute blast. On Saturday, join me in my record room. Bring Scooby snacks.
