It has to be Otis for me!

Today's artist is The Besnard Lakes! They don't show up in my Coding Playlist, but they probably should. They're very shoegazey so if you like Explosions in the Sky or Mogwai, you'll probably like them. Also, they're from Canada, so they're automatically OK.

The early 1970's had some fantastic soul music.

This music sprinkles nostalgia all over. (Even though I want there.) I would have loved to see this live when it was released.
