MUSIC MONDAY: “Love Is The Thing” – Valentine’s Day 2022 Playlist (LISTEN)

by Marlon West (FB: marlon.west1 Twitter: @marlonw IG: stlmarlonwest Spotify: marlonwest)

Happy 14th of February! It’s your friend and selector, Marlon!

We are halfway through Black History Month. It’s Valentine’s Day! If you are like my kid, it could be your birthday too. And of course, it is Music Monday here at GBN.

I am thrilled to offer this collection of mushy stuff. Here is a full workday wit of music devoted to affairs of the heart. Love is the thing all right here, at Good Black News.

This playlist brings together classics by Aretha, Stevie, Marvin, Sade, and others, along with new voices of artists like Tamia, Mario, and Liza.

There are songs here about new and enduring love. Tracks about the peril and pain of romance, everything in between.

Hope you enjoy this Valentine’s Day offering. See you all next month.

Until such time, stay safe, sane, and kind.

MUSIC MONDAY: “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” – A Love Songs Collection (LISTEN)

Happy Monday, you all.

Juneteenth, Father’s Day, and a trip to St. Louis for the first time in 15 months put this brotha in a mood for mushy stuff.

In this, more than a year of making playlists for GBN, I haven’t done a collection of love songs. Haven’t even done one for Valentine’s Day. Well, here’s an eclectic dose of lovey dove songs:

Some are overtly romantic, others about longing, and still some about loss. Jazz, R&B, Reggae, Rock ‘n Roll, and other genres are presented here.

Hope you enjoy these hours of love songs. Have a great week.
