Dr. Zarkov’s Tiki Lounge Playlist: June 4, 2014
On this week’s show we once again perambulated the penumbra of planetary pop and exotica, this time focusing on music fractating from France or in that country’s romance language in all of its dulcet tones.
Dr. Zarkov’s Tiki Lounge is broadcast on Wednesdays, 5-6 pm EDT at: http://www.radiofairfax.org The show is broadcast live; no recorded shows are archived, but some listeners choose to record it on their computers to listen later.
