Like the entire U.S., we are waiting anxiously for the arrival of the once in a lifetime solar eclipse which will achieve full totality in several states across the Nation. As with all things in life, times like this call for a great soundtrack. Thanks to NY-based soulhead (and past contributor) Tammy Sharpe, we are fortunate to have a great one. Inspired by many of the best artists and songs from the past and present across genres, we know you will enjoy these sounds for sure.
From Tammy Sharpe:
Going beyond the clouds into the Galaxy might not be possible to visit in my lifetime, In my dreams I could imagine how it would feel in the vast universe.If Richard Branson ever had a volunteer trip,these are the Earthly grooves I’d wanna hear at zero gravity.
My own party in the stars.
