"What the world needs now is love..." -Hal David (lyrics)
Last night's WPFW show was lovely, as DJ Book set it off with an (almost) entire set of songs with the word "love" in their titles. As the song says, "it's the only thing that there's just too little of," so it can't hurt to focus an hour of crate-digging on the subject. Download the show; you'll love it!
