Back this week with another volume of “Under The Covers” an hour of 45s where artists are giving hit songs of the day another go-round. A nice mix of mostly mid-60s records, there are some nice covers of the usual hits along with a few sides I don’t hear around as much.

As always, can follow me on instagram @musicalepisode to keep up with daily posts of 45s or just tune in weekly for the podcast. Hope you enjoy these 45s as much as I do and that the nice-ish weather (if you’re in an area going through spring) is helping lift your spirits through all the difficulty.

Peace,

-George / Snack Attack
