Listen to last week’s Walter Martin Radio Hour: Happiness


Now on Tidal, Apple and Spotify!

I love this damn playlist. Every song makes me happy but nothing is too sweet or annoying. There’s stuff from all over the place: New Orleans, Scotland, New York, Texas, Mexico, Germany, Jamaica, Detroit and Brazil. Every song from last episode plus lots more.

If you’re having a springtime party or just want something joyful and warm to throw on, I think this should do the trick. I particularly love how the Schumann pieces set up the Curtis Mayfield. ❤️❤️❤️

And I got a lot of notes from people saying they loved the Bunk Johnson songs so I included a bunch more of that stuff too.

The umbrella I inherited from my grandfather-in-law that hangs in my studio

Wishing everyone a happy week. It’s rainy as hell where I live and my lucky umbrella is stuck up in the rafters.
