SHANGRI-LA SOUP

So last night the first Shangri-La soup special was recorded... after a stressful week or so it was the perfect thing.

It involved me playing music, talking about music and drinking tea in Dave Dawson's 'man den'... best place on earth, occasionally being distracted by Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid on in the background with the sound off.

Here's the playlist...
