“Through the Decades”: 1970s with host Raina Douris

World Cafe is highlighting different eras of music on the show this week with a “Through The Decades” series. Next, it’s the 1970s. It was a decade that saw the release of some of the greatest albums of all time – from Bob Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks and Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On, to Carole King’s Tapestry and London Calling by the Clash. We’ll hear songs from all of those, and many more ‘70s hits
