Songs and stories

What happens when you kiss your high-octane, supersonic date while dancing to the rock 'n roll? We have a boogie with holes in it and two singers having their mojo working. A twelve-year old lead singer in a teenage vocal group, a classics maker who died too young and a woman who went to Alaska with the sole purpose of to melt the snow. There's so many stories in this episode that you might wonder how I could squeeze 21 songs in an hour - more than I ever did.
