Smooth and Mellow

Smooth and mellow:



Very SERIOUSLY smooth and mellow:



Italian, smooth and mellow:



LISTEN LIVE TO MY LOCAL: This is Branding Radio, the "Easy Listening" station here in Heemstede, the Netherlands. It's not pure easy listening (one minute they're playing the theme to Laverne and Shirley, the next it's Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon (seriously... in fact at this VERY MOMENT they are playing "Menomena" by the Muppets). But there are a lot of good tunes here (and you never have to hear the same ol' same ol' crap they're playing on "popular" stations. Have fun!!

PS - One more highly recommended site (since we're on this kind of subject): http://lpcoverlover.com WARNING: Not for those people easily offended by well-formed boobies.
