He talks with Isabel Khalili about how the show is more about a feeling than a genre, and how he uses music to draw connections between the past and present. Then he shares three songs he’s been loving lately, from '60s girl group harmonies to a soulful expression of joy, plus one lesser known track from the inventor of the power chord.
