Brilliant 11-piece Bellowhead have put together an 11-song playlist of their influences and loves. It’s a great mix, from tracks we listen to all the time at FFS HQ, to gems we’d never heard before. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
- Rahsaan Roland Kirk – Pedal Up
- Hank Jones & Cheick Tidiane Seck – Tounia Kanibala
- Pilot – Auntie Iris
- Michel Camilo – Why Not
- Tom Waits – Telephone Call From Istanbul
- Raphael Saadiq – 100 Yard Dash
- Weezer – Buddy Holly
- Arvo Part – Credo, from Berlin Mass
- Quincy Jones – Ai no Corrida
- Ralph Vaughan Williams – Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis
- Sly and the Family Stone – I Want To Take You Higher
Here’s a handy Youtube playlist so you can listen/watch all in a one-er.
