Playlist for 3-5-2019 - Fat Tuesday!

This week we celebrated Mardi Gras with Fat songs! Songs with 'big', 'fat' and 'large' in the title - as always the theme shined light on some hidden gems as well as classic material. In addition we had 2 featured albums "Fat Albert Rotunda" by Herbie Hancock keeping with the theme, and "Domino" by Roland Kirk just because it's awesome. Hope you enjoyed!
